On topic, maybe he just returns to Mother Base to conmemorate his fallen comrades similar to people visitng the site of 9/11 to pay their respects to the fallen Yup. If they all happened, they didn't happen at the military base that Boss rescued Chico and Paz from.

I read in a youtube comment a guy saying that maybe the assets are just there because the scene of mother Base's destruction is not prerendered, meaning that data for Mother Base has to exist within the game in order for the cutscen to happen. And although this is almost 100% true.

I don't think that will be the last of the Old Mother Base, the idea of Big Boss attempting to recover ZEKE sounds plausible You know, that makes sense. We may not be able to go back and walk around or fly over the old Mother Base, but it would need to have files anyway.

I don't know, do you guys even WANT to return to old Mother Base? If so, how come? Frankly, yes, I do think we should return to the old Mother Base. Want to know why? Simple, really. It's because we were never given the actual opportunity to actually explore it since Peace Walker (the only places we visited were the training facility and the ZEKE Deck. Maybe the AI lab if we count those graphic novel cutscenes. That's it.), since it functioned more as a menu than as an actual location. When Ground Zeroes was first announced, Kojima implied we'd be able to actually explore Mother Base in Ground Zeroes, then the GDC 2013 clip showed up and dashed any chances we had of ever exploring it. I don't care if they are simply ruins or not, I'd rather explore them even if they are ruins so long as I at least have the actual experience of exploring the base, something that was long denied to us since Peace Walker.
