I think when people say that it impossible, they might be refering to the programing that would be involved. but if a system like the one used for JTL's XYZ axis of movement is used for traveling outside of the cities, and the XY axis system that is use for the ground game is used for traveling in the cites, then this could be a lot easier to program then people might think.

Yeah no kidd'n. I belive anything is possible in a game. If the Devs decide to put a bit of work into this game when it comes ot something like this, i guarantee there will be more than a few happy gamers out there, espically if they pull the whole Lando Themepark off right. And i mean it needs to be Lando's style and choice of words too, no regular NPC's crap, especially when the game made Han Solo sound like a retarded *%(%*.

great ideas i would love to see this in game, but i dont think the reward shouldn't be something like xp bonuses like the FS themepark, because the FS quest was supposed to be you get skill additions from tapping deeper into the force, but with this its like "wow you helped me, let me raise your force sensitivity" i think it should be items you get.

me being a DIE HARD lando calrissian fan I am all for this idea!!!! Could city would rock and I'd luv to get the chance to steall all the cloud city hoes from lando himself!!!
just to see a player controlles YT-1300 blast by the bespin skyline would make me a very happy gamer indeed.
I already enjoy JTL, I would really like to see the following expansion packs available in the near future!
- Starships and Vehicles exp. packs 1 - 3, includes new ships such as player controlled lambda shuttle, YT-2400, new swoops, and player controlled Corvettes and Capitol ships
- Empire Strikes Exp. Pack...includes...
Cloudcity planet/ themepark(similar to the ideas in this forum)
Hoth Planet/ thempark
Introduces atmoshperic flight
- Return of the Jedi Exp Pack

its completely possible, outside bespin cities it would be like a JTL sector, but cant be hyperspaced to, gotta go to bespin orbit and enter the atmosphere to get in first 
. In bespin cities it would be like a normal planet city, even if you didnt see the ships outside it would be cool! Perhaps if they want player cities to be allowed they could have empty platforms of differing sizes to accomodate the city level sizes. And landing at a city on bespin could be like docking.

Have all the players go down far enough to barely see the cities in atmosphere. Therefore you wont be able to see the players on the ground. But perhaps you could still target larger factionbases and other huge stuff like that. So after the GCW revamp it would be a good idea to have some Y-wing buddies in the sky help take down the turrets. This brings in the idea of anti aircraft turrets which are also targetable, but best for the ground guys to take those out.

THATS IT!!! Bespin is a large gas Giant. What a great reward for completing a quest for Lando... the schematics for a 1 lot sized processing platform, that can be used like a house. The catch (if their should be one) it would cost double the maintaince fee for up keep since part of the fee would be paid to the Cloud City Adminastration.
So there it is:
Bespin would only be accessible by a players ship (this would help make it an exclusive place) and the cost of living there would be high (this will help limit the population to those who can afford it)
Traveling on Bespin would be through rentible Twin-Pod Cloud cars only (These would be rentible from a NPC only)
Schematics for Bespin styled art and furniture could be rewards for doing side quests for NPCs( this will allow the economy to bleed into the rest of the Galaxy by involving a craftsmen to assemble the art/furniture)
And finaly, The reward for completion of the "Lando" theme park would be a schematic for a small gas mining platform to be used on Bespin only (again this would bleed in to the Galaxy by the use of a craftsmen to assemble the deed)
