I watched Return of the Jedi the other night and thought to myself how cool it would be to have some friends planet side taking out a shield generator while some other friends are taking care of business in space.Will Star Citizen contain these kind of missions?asked by Stoof

TL;DRPlanet-to-space combined missions probably aren't planned, but ship-boarding missions combining fighter cover and first-person boarding are definitely expected.

I don't know about planet side to space, but there will definitely be the equivalent missions that will be ship-board to space.There'll be cases where you want to take over another ship and you'll have some friends out there in fighters, and they've got to clear out the enemy fighter cover then take out the AA guns which would be defending the bigger ship, then the other friends can go in on a boarding ship, breach the hull, and go in and start doing first person combat once the space has been secured.So that's a combined arms mission where you've got people sort of on the ground, but in this case on the ground is boarding it to take over, and people up in the air are doing air cover and suppression of the defense systems of the ship that you're going after.So that would be cool, but planet side I'm not so sure about because that's not necessarily going to be concurrent in an instance. You don't have an instance that runs at the same time as planet side in space.You never know what we may do in the future, currently that wouldn't be part of the plan, but it is a cool idea.
