I asked this myself further back, but either no one knows, or they all thought I should Google it or somethingView attachment 13756 What do the "Mars Terraforming" tech items actually do? At first I thought it was directly related to unlocking new life support buildings, but it only shows up on two of the research items. I tried searching through the SAM announcement and watched the video, but they don't mention Mars Terraforming specifically. Can someone confirm what this actually does? What does "allowing for some plants to grow" do? This may influence what I prioritize first when moving through tech. Thanks!

I assume it does nothing. That it's just an aesthetic thing, like the avatar pictures. When you get that tech, the graphics of Mars will show more plants. (I could be wrong, though.)I asked this myself further back, but either no one knows, or they all thought I should Google it or something

Thanks for the link. Sure looks like getting oxygen is extremely tedious and sparse .

You only need life support if you are worried about coins/supplies, otherwise angry colony is way to go.

haven't unlocked that tech yet . moving through techs a little slow (build 3 virgos with first 9000 goods) and following the techs along with the questline. don't have any info to prove this but the assumption I am making is that once terraforming is unlocked the mars colony will then produce an ever increasing amount of oxygen without the need for oxygen producing buildings. just a wild guess. looking ahead it seems as the need for mars ore diminishes and the need for oxygen diminishes (through terraforming) the mars colony becomes more and more valuable as a place to produce goods. ofcourse with only 2 deposits on the map it seems to make sense to partner up with players that have other deposits for trading . but something tells me even though mars arrived as a whole there may more maps added later, to give more deposits and more chances for mars ore production. all just speculation.
Every new age is the death of this game. You forgot to mention you will stop playing because of this.

And there's got to be a GvG angle to it too.

I can't understand anyone who plays any game for any length of time and can make this statement.
"Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me."
If you think you got screwed and stuck around to be screwed again, (how many times has INNO screwed you?) then you have no one to blame but yourself.
Yeah, their PR is so bad that you and a third of a million other players keep playing and the number oif players keeps going up.

Why use them? they just reduce coin and supply cost
If they went above and beyond how on earth could they have missed the announcement?

What are you even talking about here?IF I am reading this correctly anybody in VF with Renovation kits/One-Ups Has now got useless junk in their inventory as we won't (as has always been the case) be able to move our Terrace Farms/Sleigh Builders/Sunken Treasures or IMPORTANTLY any special buildings to SAM level and produce SAM goods...So IF I'm correct, the question is: Why didn't Inno think this through and tell people well in advance?

Totally agree with you, if you do not have the foresight to know not to rush right into a new era just thinking everything is going to be roses and you want to be the 1st kid on the block to rip people off on goods.. then you should probably just not comment about MARS era at all.

1 heavy and 7 rogues beats it easily. Keep your heavy out of the action first wave.stuck on Nobisia province (2 wave battle, 8 sentinals, 4 sentinals) keeping enough survivors for wave 2 very difficult. ironically seems like I may need virgo to beat! if anyone can beat it please share
