ok so my question is as follows:
since mars ore is only available on the new global map will players who have advanced to SA:M have access to it even if they have not finished the VF global map?

There won't be anymore because of the reasons given in the GBg announcement. Only question I ask myself is why list cartography as a problem when there is still Antartica for AF/OF/VF and then each space age can host its own GvG map on its (dwarf) planet?

This Great Building has the ability "Missile Launch", which gives you the chance to kill half of all enemy units at the start of a battle. Additionally, the building also produces coins for your city. It is planned to remove the ability to use this bonus in PvP, however there is no date set for the change at this time.
Set it now !

Isn't it BAD that Inno releases something and they know that they will change it, what will happen to all those ppl who are not on the forums and build the darn thing and then later on the gb is nerfed? Makes me wonder of all the times e.g. Terracotta fps being increased etc...if inno knew that they are going to change...but just went ahead and released it anyway.

Are you new?
This is how it always works. Beta is only to see if new things work. Player feedback does not matter.

There never will be. They explained why, so rather useless to keep whining.

No, ofcourse not!!!

This is not always true. In this case, the VP has been nerfed because of players's feedback on the Beta forum.

will be nerfedThis is not always true. In this case, the VP has been nerfed because of players's feedback on the Beta forum.
in a few weeks
but it will be released in the original version next week

Absolutely and IMO this is wrong and I cannot understand why Inno is doing that.
But I was replying to @Agent327 regarding his "Player feedback does not matter."

Isn't it a shame when some people only come to the boards to ridicule other people's posts and not to add anything constructive to the debate. I guess it makes them feel clever.
In my opinion releasing stuff on beta that could be nerfed in the future is fine.; that's what beta testing is all about. It should be rare to have to make changes once something has been released on the live servers, and releasing something which is known to be wrong should never happen.
Am I new? Far from it.

Beta CM has confirmed that the VP will be nerfed, not might be or could be.
If there is a reason why Inno is still releasing SAM knowing that a building (and especially a GB) will me modified, I would like to know it.
And I must thank CM @Lady Marlena for her positive quick feedback. Compared to other servers, here we are not left in the dark like mushrooms

Arctic Future Goods will be used to send the Arctic Harbor Ship to collect Promethium, which is also needed as a Special Goods for some of the Space Age - Mars Tech Tree (oh and you will also need AF Goods to repair your Arctic Harbor ship as well when it gets damaged)

With the confirmation that the Virgo Project will be "nerfed" so that it cannot be used for PvP, I could personally only see its value on the Campain Map (for some difficult fights for some FoE players) or for some Guild Expedition Level IV fights...still, because of its random feature and limited number of attempts (5 when you bring it to Level 45) I doubt that people will be rushing to get Blueprints for it, as we have seen it recently for the Terracotta Army and the Himeji Castle!
The fact that the Star Gazer GB does not provide a second Bonus will also impact its "popularity" once SAM is released on few days; any player with a highly leveled Chateau Frontenac can easily produce LOTS of current Era Goods from recurring Quests before jumping to a next Era. For instance, I am ready to go to SAM era next Tuesday and, despite trading TONS of Virtual Future Goods with Guild Members and FoE Friends, I have now put aside at least 15k of each VF Goods, so I can easily complete all SAM Tech Tree Researches requiring VF Goods and even use them for some needed Negotiations (such as the ones from Daily Challenges) so, for players in a similar situation as myself, the Star Gazer is not appealing without a second bonus.
The good news is that advanced players will then be able to use their Forge Points for existing Great Buildings within their cities and to complete remaining Research Tech Tree

Why it's going live first is not something I have an answer for unfortunately yet. Based on that thread, it appears the decision was made late to change it. The Envoy's post was only made last Friday. Beta feedback is just that. Feedback. I think its pretty valuable myself. I've seen several instances where player feedback on beta has had an impact and things get changed or re balanced. I have also seen that happen here. There will be times of course when even though players want something, it won't happen for a variety of reasons, some technical, some cost etc. In this case a change is being made. The issue for players is not that feedback wasn't listened to so much as why the changes aren't being made first. I also agree it should have been in the announcement and I've added it. As to why, I've asked the question and will hopefully have some further answers on Monday.

Will any goods be of use from previous era's? I have several special buildings producing goods. Will they become useless?

It isn't. It will still go unnerfed to the live servers. After that it will be nerfed. Players that do not know that are in for a nice surprise.
Deleted member 109369
Previous era goods will still of course be needed for GE for example. If you upgrade your special buildings such as a Terrace farm, to Mars age they will produce mars age goods,
DeletedUser14484
Ah ok... I see what you mean and I agree with you that it is wrong that the VP will modified AFTER the SAM is released.
Where I disagree with you is when you say that Player feedback does not matter. In this case, the decision was made following precisely players' feedback on the Beta Forum. There are instances when our opinions have been taken into consideration.
