| This page needs more trope entries. You can help this wiki by adding more entries or expanding current ones. |
- Canon Discontinuity: V3.0 was decanonised in response to extensive fan backlash over many changes, including the use of action figure photography instead of drawn artwork.
- Combat Medic: Trauma Team will fly to the rescue of subscribers in armed aircraft and carry armed security specialists to protect the EMTs.
- Divided States of America: Several Free States seceded from the old USA and are still resisting unification with the New United States.
- Razor Floss: Arm-installed monowire is one of the available implants.
- Twenty Minutes Into the Future: The first edition was released in 1988 and set in a then-distant 2013.
- Uncanny Valley: Inverted with the Maelstrom. This Gang's Hat is taking cybernetic augmentation to levels that are extreme even by the setting's standards, with a common one being replacing the upper face with a mount for more than two optics. Yet because they don't go all the way to full-body replacements that are Brain In a Jar within a fully robotic-looking chassis, but instead retain enough of the original flesh that observers can tell there Was Once a Man, they end up looking more disturbing than either the less augmented or the fully-replaced.
- Vice City: Night City is a Hellhole even by the standards of the setting.
