The only thing you can believe with absolute certainty is the mission.

So, it could just be - Big Boss and Zero befriend each other again because of a common enemy or interest. Simply because they parted ways in MPO doesn't mean this will not happen. Perhaps they need to fight the Russians together, who knows? Unfortunately, XOF was implied to be both Soviet and backed by Cipher (one of the Soviet soldiers in Afghanistan wore a beret with the XOF logo), so I have a hard time believing that would be the case. Maybe it is a team up and XOF actually went renegade from Cipher, but it seems unlikely.

It does not necessarily need to be XOF. I am just referring to Russians. There are many possibilities out there for Kojima to fill in the blanks. That said, I would like to see what XOF truely is.
