The post-apocalyptic world of 2018 depicted in this film is clearly different from the dark post-apocalyptic world of 2029 as depicted in Terminator (1984) and Terminator 2 - Il giorno del giudizio (1991). One reason for this is the time difference: the Resistance still uses conventional guns, helicopters and fighter planes against Skynet in 2018, and they still fight during the day as opposed to 2029, when they use laser guns and fight guerrilla-style at night. Another reason is that this 2018 is not in the same timeline as the 2029 from the first two Terminator movies: due to the intervention of John and Sarah Connor in Terminator 2 - Il giorno del giudizio (1991), the original timeline has been altered somewhat: Judgment Day occurred not in 1997 but in 2004 now (as seen in Terminator 3 - Le macchine ribelli (2003)). In this altered timeline, not everything happens the exact same way or at the same time as it did in the original timeline; this is evidenced by Sarah Connor's tape which is slightly different from the one she recorded in Terminator (1984), and the fact that the T-800 infiltrator unit is already in development in the altered 2018, whereas it was implied to be a recent development in the original 2029.
