The "Sidekick System"?

I remember hearing a developer mention this a long while back, before vehicles. They were talking about future content additions, and alongside vehicles we got a vague mention of a "sidekick system" that was going to be something substantial and interesting.
And then, as far as I can tell, we've heard nothing at all about it since.
(I'm guessing this was meant to be something like STO's Duty Officers or Bridge Officers, or something like Neverwinter's Companions? But with some customization to make your sidekick look like what you want. Like a marriage of that system used in Cryptic's other games with the Nemesis system in CO. That's just a guess though)
ANYWAY!
Did this whole thing just vanish? Was this 'Sidekick System' dropped entirely? Or did I miss some recent mention of it?

Like I said, this was shortly before Vehicles were added.

It's in there...
So, most likely somewhere between next year and 2017.
Since they got the Auras planned to this year.

Thanks, was starting to feel like I was crazy. I'd really like to see this actually happen. Has anything about it been mentioned since then though?

Well, we've been asking something about their future plans. But last one that was given was about 'Plans of 2013: Events and Auras'. So now we're waiting the Auras.

I say stuff and I say things, sometimes together but only when I'm feeling adventurous.

There is a lot of stuff in this list.
Sidekicks would be very cool, so would the nemesis stuff bellow.
I really hope that if Cryptic North starts developing for this game, that they go back and either add, fix, and or update these features. This game used to be all about customization, and as of late has just been about grinding or buying devices, which really sucks. I would like to see a major return to the customization in the form of powers and costumes, and features that let us customize our characters even further.
Cyber, that is a perfect example of Crime and PUNishment

Now the DOFF system from STO would be awesome and would not require rebalancing since it's basically a mini-game.

maybe after they release their 1000th vehicle.
Took some time for our Auras to be released but at least they released it eventually
So in the future we might but not any time soon
