{{quote| ''The Tal Shiar have entered the base!''}}
** The final boss of the Borg sector defense missions looks almost exactly like [[Star Trek: The Motion Picture (Film)|V'Ger]]. Popular fanon theory says that V'Ger was enhanced by the Borg and sent back to Earth.
** The 2800 storyline happens to reflect upon another [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/The4400[The 4400|story involving people vanishing and reappearing decades later.]]
* [[Shown Their Work]]: during one of the Franklin Drake missions, you have to help calibrate a "cortical stimulator" based on tricorder readings of affected brain cells. The neuron factoids are basically spot-on.
* [[Simulation Game]]: Of ''[[Star Trek (Franchise)|Star Trek]]'' in general, from the landing missions to exploration, and oh-so-much [[Techno Babble]].
Line 306:
* [[Technology Porn]]: Your very own customizable starship. The graphics are optimized to make her look as sexy as possible.
* [[Ten Minute Retirement]]: Executive Producer Dan Stahl, who left in late 2011 to work for [[Farmville|Zynga]], and later returned to Cryptic to work with the Foundry, before finally resuming his post as Executive Producer in mid February 2012.
* [[Theme Naming]]: {{spoiler|The Undine, formerly Species 8472, who are now named [http[wikipedia://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ondine_Ondine %28mythology%29 |after the water elemental of German myth]]. Their ships follow a similar naming convention, such as [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Tethys_:Tethys %28mythology%29 |Tethys]] and [http[wikipedia://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dahut |Dahut]].}}
** [[Meaningful Rename]]: Sort of. {{spoiler|While they didn't "choose" to rename themselves, the proper name for the Undine makes sense [[Captain Obvious|given that they come from "fluidic" space]], and nearly all references to "8472" in-game are replaced with the new name.}}
* [[To Hell and Back]]: One of the [[Player Versus Environment|PVE]] Klingon missions involves your captain storming the gates of Gre'thor and killing Molor and his [[Legions of Hell]].
