So the mission not only gives you a way to clear your CrimeStat, but now it gives you a way to escape the planet without needing to call for friends?

One of the issues we noticed with the first escape route we had was that it really isn't good for a solo player, because they'll get out and they can put up a service beacon waiting for someone to pick them up. They're just stuck. So this kind of helps that solo player lifestyle get off. And plus, with the addition of the Platinum Bay, even if you've not taken the mission, you should be able to go and get your stuff.
