    If this was intended, then thanks. ;)

    If it's merely a coincidental similarity, lucky us. :P

    I built Taris' base. We knew she had an Iconian Gateway. The designer on that level had a rough layout drawn up, and wanted a room for the gate, and a control room overlooking it. The comparison was kind of inevitable from there, but we did play it up a bit.

    The Iconian Gateway also had to look like *they* (Taris' people) had built it. So we wanted it to be surrounded by Romulan tech. As it happened, we had a nice shape in some of the hallway supports already, so I stole those, and built up stuff around it.

    *Did you guys catch the borg tech stuff in the wall behind the gateway? Taris uses whatever tech she thinks will be useful.*

    I didn't notice in my first pass during beta, but I did stop and admire the handiwork the second run through... truly a scarey thing, mixing all that tech.

    Indeed a very nice touch for Stargate fans. I actually took a screenshot of it from the Closed Beta just in case it got changed or I didn't encounter it again for some reason. :)

    Signed, a fan of both at about the same level of fandom. ;)

    Funnily enough, the captain of the U.S.S. Enterprise was a descendant of Walter... :P

    Yes, and also the walkway abruptly ending righ 'behind' the gate, the smoke/vapor coming out, ...

    And to top it all, the stargate,... er, gateway, leads us directly to "Mind Games", the best mission in STO (I've just played it for the first time with the VO, excellent!).

    When I was there I was saying to myself that it looked familiar but I couldn't place it. It's been so long sense I've seen SG-1 that it didn't instantly click. Well done T'cofang!

    Oh good so it wasn't just me... during that mission, I was looking around, waiting to see if Jack, Sam, Daniel and Teal'c would come through the gate... :)

    Nicely done :)

    I noticed earlier how the Bajoran temple entrance on DS9 seemed kind of like a stargate... but now this thing basically IS a stargate, with a Romulan-esqe SGC to boot.

    I even did a photochop of the Bajoran temple entrance, added the "puddle", made the symbols around the circle glow, etc.

    That was the first thing I noticed during Closed Beta. I thought it was hilarious, and a nice homage to a great series. :)

    Any chance "Ground Zero" and "Taris" will be updated to accommodate this?

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    Hmm, guess it was too complicated for the Taco.

    That or he'll tell us it was there, we just didn't see it because the gateway was in use and outbound. :P
