Pankratos wrote: as an every metal gear profesional, i can tell you, that it wouldnt have been:

zero, cause zero is seen in metal gear 4 in human condition and not zombie style like this one.

gene, cause he definetly would never destroy mother base (different ideology) and he doesnt use shotguns plus he died at po ops.

volgin, cause volgin uses electricity not shotguns, plus he is double bigger.

python, cause python joined forces with big boss back then portable ops time, also he is a grenade - assault rifle guy.

decoy octapus, cause he just take other morph, cant be a solo commander plus he would have been to young for events just after peace walker.

zadornof, cause he is dead, so dead that big boss uses his hand, plus a kgb spy like him cant be a commander like that.

psycho mantis, cause he doesnt use shotguns and he would be a child at that time.

any other things just old boy, boss father, are shit, things that kojima will never use.

He is a new characher, deal with it. Not to imply that he is Decoy Octopus (like you said, he's more likely to be a new character), but a comment made by Ocelot regarding FOXDIE most likely wouldn't have made him too young for him to be the commander shortly after Peace Walker, should he actually be him (He mentioned something along the lines of "FOXDIE killed Baker and Octopus, so it's true it attacks older people first", and judging by that, he's certainly older than Vulcan Raven, Sniper Wolf, Psycho Mantis, and Liquid Snake, and might even be older than Revolver Ocelot).
