====Time setting====
Looking at the timeline the story can be seen as direct sequel. But ''RS'' is set into the year 2055. Didn't Oni take place in 2032?
Well, (in my opinion) neither Oni's original nor RS's timeline is that much fitting into 2032.
* This point of view is supported by some footnotes of Oni's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oni_%28video_game%29#Footnotes Wikipedia Article] (following footnotes are from 21 August 2006)
# There have been debates as to whether 2032 is the actual year of the game's setting as the manual has never clearly stated this to be so. It is only given that the World Coalition Government was formed in January 12th 2032, and as the game progresses, the possibility of the in-game storyline actually being set in 2032 gets lesser.
# According to Konoko's in-game diary, November 22 was a Monday. This is true for the years 2032, 2038, 2049, et cetera.
# Officially confirmed to be set in 2032 by Bungie.net's Oni FAQ, although this is still debated due to how tightly the events of Oni would have been packed together, and that the FAQ went up during the Bungie/Microsoft take over.
Some conflicts with the manual:
* "[[Quotes/Manual#PRE-MISSION_BRIEFINGS|It's 2032 and the world ain't what it used to be.]]" + "In a matter of years all traces of the old governments faded away."
* "[[Quotes/Manual#THE_TECHNOLOGY_CRIMES_TASK_FORCE_.28TCTF.29|They told us that abuse of technology was the enemy and that the Technology Crimes Task Force was our guardian.]]" + 13_65_29 Kerr: [...] I took you to the TCTF. [...] + 4_54_21 Konoko: [...] Griffin made me a monster when I was 07 years old [...]
:: There's no explicit statement that WCG established the TCTF but it's most probable.
* "[[Quotes/Manual#Konoko|Orphaned at the age of 3, the woman now code-named Konoko has been raised as a ward of the World Coalition Government ever since.]]"
::So Hasegase invented his miracle in less the 3 years? (The time is bordered by Jamie's death and Konoko arrival at the TCTF.) That seems very less time for such a super project. Maybe he worked on the idea before he met Jamie. The Daodan's origin is unclear after all.
What happen if I take my thoughts into "2032 - today".
* Oni's technology is for 3032 more unlikely (in my opion).
* The TCTF would not be established by WCG but maybe expanded into a secret police.
:: Nothing is said about the time here: "They told us that abuse of technology was the enemy and that the Technology Crimes Task Force was our guardian."
:: If WCG was founded in 2032 then Kerr and Konoko were already 20 years at the TCTF.
<!--* "[[Quotes/Manual#Mercenary_Sniper|Mercenary Snipers are veterans of the Uprising War that left the World Coalition Government in control of the globe.]] [...]"-->
* Tracy said: „[[Quotes/Consoles#Terrance_Griffin|Terrance Griffin is a valued Agent who has devoted his entire life to the TCTF.]]“
:: "his entire life" should be more then one year.
What would be the minimum difference to 2032? Guessing Konoko's age and Griffin years at the TCTF. It might be around "plus 20 years".
'''Phase stream projector'''
One and only mentioned: <span style="background-color:#BDC">[[Quotes/Weapons#ph_stream|Freedom Riots in 20'''1'''2]]</span>. A typo maybe -- should mean 2032?
* <span style="background-color:#BDC">[keywords: phase stream projectors, 2012, Freedom Riots; source: [[Quotes/Weapons#ph_stream]] (in-game)]</span><br>"This device is a miniaturized version of the vehicle-mounted phase projectors deployed during the Freedom Riots of 2012. It emits a continuous beam of energy that can stagger or topple enemies."
All other violent events are described as following and let guess 2032:
* peacekeeping forces <span style="background-color:#BDC">[1]</span>
* time of unrest <span style="background-color:#BDC">[2]</span>
* Uprising War <span style="background-color:#BDC">[3]</span>
* border skirmishes <span style="background-color:#BDC">[4][5]</span>
* Great Uprising <span style="background-color:#BDC">[6]</span>
* <span style="background-color:#BDC">[1][keywords: WCG, "peacekeeping forces", infighting; source: [[Quotes/Manual#THE_WORLD_COALITION_GOVERNMENT|THE WORLD COALITION GOVERNMENT]] (manual)]</span><br>"They created "peacekeeping forces" capable of putting down any infighting [...]"
* <span style="background-color:#BDC">[2][keywords: Network, new geopolitical order (WCG), time of unrest; source: [[Quotes/Consoles#History_of_the_Syndicate|History of the Syndicate]] (in-game)]</span><br>"During that time of unrest they found that they needed a more centralized armed power base to maintain their operations and so began to arm and train their operatives in a consistent manner. In doing so the faceless Network evolved into the highly trained and heavily armed force that we now know as the Syndicate."
* <span style="background-color:#BDC">[3][keywords: WCG, Uprising War; source: [[Quotes/Manual#Mercenary_Sniper|Mercenary Sniper]] (manual)]</span><br>"Mercenary Snipers are veterans of the Uprising War that left the World Coalition Government in control of the globe. [...]"
* <span style="background-color:#BDC">[4][keywords: World Coalition Government, border skirmishes; source: [[Quotes/Manual#THE_TECHNOLOGY_CRIMES_TASK_FORCE_.28TCTF.29|THE TECHNOLOGY CRIMES TASK FORCE (TCTF)]] (manual)]</span><br>"One of the excuses World Coalition Government used to grab the reigns was the use of biological weapons by a few of the countries involved in border skirmishes at the time."
* <span style="background-color:#BDC">[5][keywords: leaders of the new regime (WCG), endless border skirmishes; source: [[Quotes/Manual#THE_WORLD_COALITION_GOVERNMENT|THE WORLD COALITION GOVERNMENT]] (manual)]</span><br>"The leaders of the new regime gave us all kinds of rationalizations for their actions, ranging from endless border skirmishes between impoverished nations to environmental problems that they claimed could only be solved if all of the "citizens of earth" worked together."
* <span style="background-color:#BDC">[6][keywords: Great Uprising, WCG researchers; source: [[Quotes/Items#ammo|ammo]] (in-game)]</span><br>"Coordinating the arms of mercenary and corporate forces during the Great Uprising had WCG researchers scrambling to solve their logistical problems. [...]"
====Time line====
Where do the days came from? These dates shall just create some fix points so I'm not lost thinking "when happens that again".
And for well-known 2032- but here alternative time line: please follow the link. [[Restless_Souls/timeline_2032|("2032 today") alternative time line]]
