Ghost Recon Wildlands and Breakpoint share the same engine, AnvilNext 2.0. Breakpoint has been nothing, but failed sinking ship that has shown nothing, but unpromising features. I think it's time to cut the companies losses and switch focus to recovering company losses and redeem your self as a gaming studio by returning to Wildlands. Wildlands was positively received, but with major flaws such as movement animations, covering animations and system and also camera angles. Although these are not horrendous features they are mediocre at most and Wildlands can improve vastly by porting over animations from Breakpoint, movement and camera angles. A lot of video game companies stick to one game and continously update it and turn it into a profitable service game by attracting old and new players to game through new or improved content and game mechanics. I think the fans would be infatuated with your studio if you provide a new revolutionary improvements into a new game mode in Wildlands.

If you could take all the good things and improvements from Breakpoint and add them to Wildlands, along with new story content and areas to explore, you would have one hell of an amazing game.
I'm one of the few players that actually enjoys Breakpoint, but if Ubisoft started updating Wildlands with new content and features, I'd be more than happy to return to Bolivia and take down El Sueno again.

This would be the right move. Bolivia was great, Breakpoints island is pretty horrible. The fast travel isn't fast travel due to long animations and menus, and the bivouac system is totally unrealistic in several ways, including that you're supposed to be hunted and not receiving vehicles out of nowhere. The terrain is boring, and steep cliffs often block the option of running from place to place. The terrain is mostly ugly when compared to the lush jungles and dry deserts of Wildlands, which still look awesome. Especially the trees seem to have no roots or vegetaions surrounding their base, it looks like the original Crysis.
Port everything worth porting to Bolivia and we're so much better off. So much. Or create a present day civil war situation in North Korea, Vietnam, etc. using Wildlands' environments.
Anything but Breakpoint's current engine is better in my opinion, since it feels "off" in almost all regards: the AI, the UI, the magical properties in the guns, the silly plot... Wildlands wins in every category. Put a new map and campaign to Wildlands and I'll gladly pay 30$ for it. There could be even a few drones, but not many. Do it realistically, make it feel more like GR1 and GR2. Those and Wildlands should be the standards, Future soldier and Breakpoint both tried to "enhance the formula" and both failed pretty badly.
Ubisoft should definitely ditch Breakpoint, since it's become obvious they can't fix the main campaign. There's no getting away from this fact. No amount of PvP will change this situation, and since they're not willing to rework the entire game, I say ditch it.
