A recent player report highlights an issue in Elite Dangerous where commanders cannot land on a planet required for a mission to destroy Sentry Skimmers near a settlement. The planet is flagged as unsuitable for landing, and attempts to glide down fail, pulling ships out of supercruise prematurely. The player discovered that accessing this planetary surface requires the Odyssey DLC, which is necessary for landing on certain worlds. This situation emphasizes the need for owning specific expansions to complete some missions and the challenges faced when mission objectives extend beyond a player's current game access.
- Landing on certain planets requires Odyssey DLC.
- Mission involves destroying Sentry Skimmers near a settlement.
