According to the Blade Runner rpg, the moon and Mars started getting colonised in the 1990s. Nexus 1 Replicants were first created in 2000 according to the comics. So, a lot of the technology was in use pre-2004.thanks for laying it out like this; maybe the future yutani tech derived from the predator gun in 2004 leads to massive leaps in building construction? lol
That doesn't mean that big strides in technological advancement didn't happen because of the acquisition of Yautja technology though. I'm thinking FTL travel and such. Dreddpool's Neonopolis example was very good here, since Predator: Concrete Jungle is set in 2030 and features a Blade Runner-esque city constucted due to leftover Yautja technology. It also acts as a prequel to the the MU/TH/UR AI that was built into the Nostromo and features a mysterious CEO of Weyland Industries (Weyland Corp?) who acquires Borgia Industries. Possibly Peter Weyland actually.
Of course, that was over the course of 100 years (1930-2030) rather than 22 years (1997-2019). I guess it fits that the crime-ridden city of Predator 2 became the polluted Coruscant-like city of Blade Runner.
