I think that maybe depending on how well Survive sells Konami may try to bring back Hayter as Solid Snake in an effort to "bring back" the fans. I initially thought that this was brilliant! I read up on the whole timeline of MG:

I kinda lost track as to the storyline because I missed one or two games but was also devistated by the fact that David Hayter was replaced because he is the one we grew up with. After reading that Venom Snake was not necessarily Big Boss in Phantom Pain but actually the medic I think that were in the chopper with him when it went down in Ground Zeroes who got plastic surgery to look like Big Boss afterwards. I thought this was brilliant then how they 'tricked' us by 'replacing' David Hayter but that was just because it was not Big Boss. But then there is the loophole of Sutherland voicing Big Boss in Ground Zeroes that keeps getting to me :/ If only David voiced Ground Zeroes and then continued with Sutherland in Phantom Pain as venom snake- it would have been perfect. Not sure if any of this makes sense though haha.

Hopefully we can look forward to the movie- Im holding my nuts rather than thumbs because I need it so bad to be good hah!
