History Trivia / CommandAndConquerTiberianSeries

** The Orca Dropship was suppose to be a mechanic within the GDI campaign where the player can select what units to deploy during the mission. These units would be received on a Dropship Bay structure (which the player could construct). This was later removed and part of the Dropship bay was repurposed for another structure, but much of the code remains (albeit unfinished) within the final game.
** The Orca Transport was originally suppose to be available as a troop transport, but for whatever reason it was removed. Assets (including a build icon) still remained in the game and in custom scenarios it's possible to spawn one under the player's control, but outside of mods it's unavailable for multiplayer.

* RealLifeRelative: Daniel Kucan, who is the brother of Kane's actor, Creator/JosephDKucan, played four characters in the ''Tiberian'' series(the "At least your mother tipped well!" guy from the channel 319 during the channel flipping intro of ''Tiberian Dawn'', Jake McNeil in ''Tiberian Sun'', an unnamed Nod reporter in ''Tiberian Wars'', Joshua Mitchell in ''Kane's Wrath'' and a random civilian in the epilogue of ''Tiberian Twilight'' who scoffs about Kane being gone).

** Westwood's version of ''Tiberian Twilight'' was going to be ''Tiberian Incursion'', the third game in the Tiberian continuity in place of ''[[VideoGame/CommandAndConquerTiberiumWars Tiberium Wars]]'', and would have continued the post-apocalyptic plot set by ''[[VideoGame/CommandAndConquerTiberianSun Tiberian Sun]]''. Not much is known about what was intended, but it would have led into ''[[VideoGame/CommandAndConquerRedAlert2 Red Alert 2]]'' due to another time travel act and conclude the Tiberian series. ''[[VideoGame/CommandAndConquerRedAlert3 Red Alert 3]]'' would have been the bridge between the original ''[[VideoGame/CommandAndConquerRedAlert Red Alert]]'' and ''Tiberian Dawn'', showing how the Brotherhood of Nod would have risen from the ashes of the Soviet Union. This would later all be nixed by EA, possibly because of the confusing plot lines involving time travel.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: ''Tiberium'' would have featured a new generation of Titan walkers, a modular weapon called the [=GD-10=] that could fire rockets, grenades, railgun rounds, or ion blasts, and would have been in 2058 Italy during the second Scrin invasion.

* ReferencedBy: VideoGame/SimCity 4 has ''Kane Tiberium'' as an industrial complex.
** VideoGame/TheSims 3 has it possible to find Tiberium crystals by researching ancient Egyptian relics and moon rocks. Predictably, it makes the poor sim who found them ripping sick.
** ''Music/LadyGaGa''s music video for ''Telephone'' calls for a cup of Tiberium as an ingerdient in a poison.

** Killed ''Tiberium'', the planned squad-based FPS. There was [[http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=20462 so little leadership]] that it was hard to determinate ''how the game was exactly supposed to be played''. Oh, and it was expected to be completed in [[http://www.cncsaga.de/foren/viewtopic.php?id=522 eleven months]].

** ''Tiberian Twilight'' was originally planned for the Asian (read Korean) gaming market without a singleplayer, but was adapted into the conclusion of the ''Tiberium'' saga in order to increase sales, and to help make up for the economic failure of ''[[CommandAndConquerRedAlert Red Alert 3]]'' (which resulted at least in part from the game's DRM).
