Yep, for 1m or however many CCs to unlock once you've done the quest on another character.

Why is that such a hard concept to grasp? How supporting what makes the game as a whole better instead of being so terrified that your virtual e-peen won't look as big anymore?
You must be very proud of your collection of participant trophies.

We get your point, we just disagree. We earned a thing, by meeting certain conditions, we got a thing. Some people did not earn the thing, and did not get the thing. That's how life works.

YOU, want to give the thing to everyone, regardless of whether they earned it or not. Then you make emasculating comments trying to make us feel ashamed for defending the thing we EARNED.

How, exactly, does it make the game as a whole better to give every thing to everybody? What's the motivation to hold a subscription? What's the motivation to try end game content? What's the motivation to do anything besides log on?

inb4 "there's alot of advantages to subbing..." We're talking about Nico and only Nico. All other concerns are aside.
It's what i do... I drink, and I know things.

Comprende?
how much story do any companions other than your original crew have again? I must have missed that, once you get HK or treek there isnt any more story either.... so i fail to see your point. get over it, you missed out on what you needed to do to get Nico, stop whining and man up

You didn't earn squat. You were subbed at a certain time, that's all. I'm talking about letting people earn him via story progression. Again, we would still be able to have him at lv1 where anyone else would have to play a character all the way through ch 9 of KotFE.

For someone who talks about "earning" this and that, you don't have a whole lot of reading comprehension. I've already said I have him, I'm just not such a sad and pathetic individual that I measure my self-worth by it and am fine with sharing.

Yeah, I know, I really wish they'd do something with SCORPIO, Kaliyo, Xalek, Pierce, Jorgan and the others.

Do you actually stop and think about what you type?

Sometimes earning something is measured by commitment. In this case earning Nico was measured by staying subscribed for x amount of time. So the people who did stay subscribed did earn him. It's not correct to dismiss it. On the other hand if they started developing specific content for nico then your idea wouldn't be bad. It does incentivize a subscription. Currently though if any specific subscriber reward gets dished out in another way it's effectively undermining the purpose of subscriber rewards as a whole which would go against the notion that allowing the reward to be gained in an alternate path is beneficial.

Words mean something - Nico Okarr (and his junk, and HK-55 and all his junk, and the Hutt pocket trainer, and the Party Jawa, and all the other time-limited "exclusive" items, pets, titles, what-have-you) were advertized as "time-limited exclusives."

I wouldn't necessarily say I "earned" Nico or HK-55, but I certainly "qualified" for them, by being subbed at a certain point. (And missed qualifying for other time-limited exclusives because I wasn't subbed at the points necessary).

In long-running participation-based games, there are ALWAYS going to be things new players can't get.

Actually HK-51 & Treek each have about half a dozen conversations after you acquire them.
My name is Milind. I checked it again and can confirm you there is no bug with any companion in the game.
