The ability to land on a planet's surface 

At launch you will not be able to descend to the surface of a planet but instead you will see a re-entry animation and, I presume, cut to the landing pad.

The ability to move around in your ship:

At launch Elite: Dangerous will be similar to the other incarnations of Elite in that you will be stuck in your cockpit looking out. However David Braben has said he would like to implament moving around with your ship with functionality such at fighting fires etc.

The ability to leave your ship

Also mentioned was the ability to leave your ship, board other peoples ships and walk on planetary surfaces as well as in space stations ground stations. Suggested outcomes by David Braben include smuggling aboard other people's ship, possibly even stealing them as well as big game hunting on planetary surfaces.
