We need new items

I agree that new items would require new perks, (probably) new crew and they would decrease chamce of getting the items we have right now
but I think that balancing this game might be done by adding new items - counters to the op ones or good alternatives which can replace them, so devs don't need to do the game balancing by nerfs (nerfs like the frost and tesla bolt ones which almost killed the items, ex cannon nerf was too big but it's still usable item)
