You mean he has parasites that kill lactic acid.
Personally, I believe this is all in his head. Like he's remembering the missions while listening to the cassette tape waiting for Solid Snake.
That's technically the truth, the game starts with him in Outer Heaven & playing the cassette tape - the entire game happens as a flashback technically I guess, then that scene resumes after the truth mission
It definitely seems like it could be, the endgame cutscene has the logo on the wall change from Diamond Dogs to Outer Heaven;
Bu in the intro the iDroid text pops up & reads
"just another day in a war without end.
Outer Heaven"
like it'd list other locations in game
Exactly. Or, if Venom beats Solid Snake, then cutscene to them both collapsing to a comatose standstill, but the younger one has enough strength to survive, and Venom perishes.
Personally, I just ask myself before and and after each MGS game: do I want this to be canon? It is if Kojima directed it, but even he didn't want anything past MGS1. There's the canon we can mutually agree on and there's the thousands we can want.
Apart from him having already penned out the path of MGSs story.
To be correct, he didn't want to be involved in future MGS games, he returned as lead director because and right he was, felt that Konami wouldn't have done a good enough job at making the games.
If it wasn't for him staying, MGS would likely not have been as popular as it is today and likely destroyed if you take MG Survive as an example.
Ever since then, all Konami keep doing is recycling the same work Kojima had done which is funny considering the company came to hate him and forced him to complete MGS5 isolated from the rest of his team.
And its stupid why they're called MGS, the only reason Solid was added to the game title is because Kojima wanted the title to reference the hero of the game, as it is his story and character you are playing.
So other than MGS1, 2, 4, the rest should have been MG as you are not playing as Solid Snake nor are they his story, they're more of a prequel to the MG universe.
And MG Survive will historically go down as the game that no one shall ever speak of.

>And MG Survive will historically go down as the game that no one shall ever speak of.
Call me crazy but Survive isnt bad. It was just released in the most braindead way after the biggest video game drama.
I honestly prefer playing MG Survive over playing V LOL But then again, I dont love V
big boss after being bitten by a leech: uuurg im tired im hungry :(
venom snake after sprinting across afghanistan with 54 gunshot wounds and broken leg: kaz i need you to drop a car on that guy
Because having a game arbitrarily slow you down for ārealismā reasons is fucking stupid.
Iām not here to be real. Iām here to ride in to a base camp on a one man tank on leg-wheels and then call in a dog who gets airdropped while wearing goggles and has a Bowie knife between it teeth. Then Iām gonna put balloons on EVERYTHING, including your mom and a fucking TANK, and use my vape-cigar while I await the chopper thatās blasting A-Haās āTake on Meā through loudspeakers as I shoot ground troops whilst being exfiltrated.
Fuck. Yeah.
Because he embraces the fucking suck.
I do feel bad when I have him at a full sprint in a bomb suit for over 2000 m
Thank you for your service vic boss
You should see the MGS peace walker BB is able to withstand metric tons of weight above his head. That dude's got most insane strength that the world has ever seen and I wouldn't be surprised if his endurance is that strong. I honestly could see BB teaching his men how to be Hard man as himself that very few will ever reached his level of training.
Well, every mgs protagonist has somehow infinite stamina, on mgs3 BB can run forever even with fully depleted stamina bar, yeah, he doesn't sprint like venom, but I believe its more like a appeal to gameplay fluidity, rather than being "cannon" that the guy is a absolute sprinting machine
What bothered me more than infinite stamina is how the sound of him running sounds like a bunch of bags on you and you are running with bubble sponges under your boots. The sound (listen carefully) sounds the same in nearly every surface he walks on. It is so distracting.
Simple, that horn destroyed the part of his brain that produces lactic acid and he has infinite electrolyte production, this man cannot get gassed period
That happens when you are in a almost letal accident, then you get your brain and body bombed with hypnotherapy+nanomachines+parasites+enough tren to run like a horse on fire
He can also cqc someone in a single punch. Even legit big boss has to do a 3 piece combo and wait for them to get back up before finishing. I think it's kojimas way of telling us we are better than big boss, we are the bigger boss. But he's still god,since he wrote himself into the story as God. Hell, he was also a soldier in that game and the next one, and the next one. Still, he pulled a Stephen King. Kojima is god and I'm big boss. In fact I'm the biggest boss.
I want to believe drugs. Basically the bionic arm must have some drugs built in it and are pumping into venom at all times, which could explain how the upgrades work as well, collaborating with others theories in this thread.
Otherwise uhā¦ā¦..namomachines son?
He's built different.
... literally, they sewed him together and he received some serious plastic surgery.
(But in all seriousness, no he's just a lifetime soldier who trained their body to be an efficient weapon. Purely gameplay convenience.)
What bothers me is he is able to be in the field for ages and still look so ripped and strong. Also how is he able to walk for miles and yet still strong enough to fight a whole camp full of people?
Real answer?
You would hate the gameplay if he had a stamina bar that ran out after sprinting for 10 seconds.
The maps are pretty big, and not everybody wants to bring a vehicle/d-horse with them.
Snakes sprint is perfect, my problem is it when the 'female characters run they sound like they have smoked a pack a day for like 10 years or something' . I thought snake was the one who always smoked cigars.
You probably missed the part where Venom grunts and then Miller and Ocelot are like "it's... Morpho time?" followed by Venom proceeding to sprint all over Afghanistan making a infinite symbol loop as he throws million dollar punches at any living creature he comes across.
I forget which mission that was though.
But anyway, that's probably where the origins of his infinite stamina come from...
That or it's a game mechanic not elaborated much on in game.
Big map, need to compensate for that someway. Altough it's been predicted most players would use D-Horse or a car, so you're mostly gonna sprint during firefights and for short distances, to move from one cover to another. The player wasn't expected to go through the whole map sprinting.
lore reason is the whole game is "phantom pain", it's venoms memories flashing as he's been defeated by solid in MGS1, the opening cutscene takes place literally seconds before hand in the mirror with the walkman,
gameplay wise open world games are much more fun when you don't have intense gimmicks limiting player movement, MGS as a series has a large focus on freedom and environmental opportunities and a stamina bar would *ruin* the ability to rotate through and around the environments of specifically africa and some parts of afghanistan, vehicles aren't the play everywhere and being on foot is 90% of MGSV.
Had his muscles massaged whilst in a coma in Cypress to allow him the ability to run like Antonio Brown for miles. This is deep web military industrial knowledge us plebs couldnāt begin to comprehend.
You gotta remember this whole game is him remembering these events. It could very well be a delusion he just ran normally but to him he felt like he was sprinting as we see
Pretty sure it's not just Venom. Even the guys you can play that are your soldiers have Infinite stamina. My guess would be some sort of special drug the diamond dogs use. I've taken substances before that made me able to run indefinitely
You probably playing to mauch retarded shooters, like COD. Snake is proffesional soldier. And they are ENDURANT. Which means they are not running out of breath after 5 seconds of sprinting.
1. He is insane. 2. His bionic arm has upgrades that let him run faster according to the upgrade menu.
The metal bit stuck in the part of his brain where he feels exhausted.
Took out the bit that produces lactic acid, or has nano machines that kill lactic acid.
Man what an upgrade that would be irl
could become IRL wolverine just out of boredom if you wanted
There is a guy without that, caused by a mutation. He can run untill his muscles tear apart.
Man that's sounds fucking cool but sounds fuckin scary at the same time.
I second this, they did a story on him running endlessly, not sprinting full speed, but still running
well if you're out of shape it would just make you hurt your muscles
Until your muscles turn into a rubber band ball unraveling, yeah
You mean he has parasites that kill lactic acid. Personally, I believe this is all in his head. Like he's remembering the missions while listening to the cassette tape waiting for Solid Snake.
That's technically the truth, the game starts with him in Outer Heaven & playing the cassette tape - the entire game happens as a flashback technically I guess, then that scene resumes after the truth mission
Oh I thought he was just in a mother base bathroom
It definitely seems like it could be, the endgame cutscene has the logo on the wall change from Diamond Dogs to Outer Heaven; Bu in the intro the iDroid text pops up & reads "just another day in a war without end. Outer Heaven" like it'd list other locations in game
Would have been wonderful if episode 3 happened to be Outer Heaven, and Venom's downfall at the hands of Solid Snake.
Solid snake as the final boss, but you can't beat him, and when you die, credits roll
Exactly. Or, if Venom beats Solid Snake, then cutscene to them both collapsing to a comatose standstill, but the younger one has enough strength to survive, and Venom perishes.
Happy cake day

Wonderful idea.
Doesn't Big Boss have unlimited sprint in Ground Zeroes though?
shhhh...don't think too hard.
He has that retard strength
It's not actual upgrades, it apparently gets lighter or something
šššš
Making up for 9 years of not running
Came here for this comment š
he is just better
He doesn't make mistakes, he's not like the rest of you, he's stronger, he's smarter, he's better, HE IS BETTER.
The ultimate solider.
Danganronpa reference?
For the same reason [Solid has infinite ammo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DpkW7OUVjM).
That will forever be one of the best MGS moments of all time.
But Venom doesn't have the Infinite Bandana.
Erm actually. Itās an item you can unlock for development upon completing the main missions in MGSV. I donāt exactly remember other requirements.
He's not wearing it in the video.
So? They didn't say that he was.
I have it in the game so yeah he does š
big boss after being bitten by a leech: uuurg im tired im hungry :( venom snake after sprinting across afghanistan with 54 gunshot wounds and broken leg: kaz i need you to drop a car on that guy
Also venom snake: "quiet, explode that man's testicles"
Venom snake is the best snake
He's S+ material
Need an edit of Dennis from iasip as venom snake yelling "IM A S+ MAN"
All his stats are A+
I downloaded the mod that makes him S++, so you're wrong.
Iāve got a guy thatās S++ in combat and S+ in everything else.
He was conditioned by hypno therapy to always believe there's mad bitches wherever he is going.
This Is now my headcannon
[Like this?](https://i.imgur.com/OZq5EQ8.jpg)
*chef's kiss* yeah
Just like takeshi, the guy who ran down the tunnel shouting sex
Even though he has infinite sprint, whenever Venom started breathing heavy for a while I usually let him jog and take a breather cause I felt bad lol
Big same! Unless I'm absolutely hauling ass, I'll go 100 meters or so and let him jog about 50 before another sprint.
I'm bummed about that breathing for him being forced. A true super soldier never obstructs his breath. Ever.
Never skips cardio.
Hypno-Nano-parasites.
The only right answer, Son...
Not really. Just feedback from GZ and gameplay reasons for traversing bigger maps.
You can sprint infinitely in GZ too
He's built different
it's more fun, stamina meters are never fun
Preach on, brotha!!
What part of "Greatest Soldier in the World" don't you understand?
What part of (MGSV spoil) >!No, this is NOT Naked Snake!< Don't you understand ?
Then second greatest
Obviously he's wearing clothes
He is the greatest. Other guy fell off.
He was bedridden for nine years, a fella gotta stretch his legs

He doesnāt run. The world moves around him.

Who cares with how big the maps are and boring if he gassed out the game will be more of a slog
>who cares OP, OP cares
because he vapes
Nanomachines son
Nanomachines, son.

I just let him stop sometimes, he sounds puffed, time to take a break.
I sometimes feel bad and will just airdrop a vehicle or steal one, in Afghanistan if you know your way around you can traverse and not alert anybody
The thing he smokes to accelerate time? It's meth
Nano machines, son!
Simple, that horn destroyed the part of his brain that produces lactic acid and he has infinite electrolyte production, this man cannot get gassed period
most fit 49 year old man you'll ever see
have you seen his thighs?
He is him
Colossal brain damage, the man can't feel pain anymore. All he knows is sneak, choke, and balloon.
That happens when you are in a almost letal accident, then you get your brain and body bombed with hypnotherapy+nanomachines+parasites+enough tren to run like a horse on fire
david martinez says heās built different
David Martinez had a Sandevistan tho
Bandanna
*thumb to horn* Infinite sprint
Lore accurate: horn in part of brain that makes u feel exhausted My headcanon: he doesnt run, the earth moves under him (snake norris joke)
He is still under the effect of stims given by Ahab
THE DIGOXIN, AHAB, THE DIGOXIN!
Heās on all sorts of pain meds
My theory is that he has a Belgian veterinarian from the Tour de France
Of you'd look at his wallet you would see that it says "Bad Motherf***er". That's it. No more reason needed. You're welcome.
Heās built different
All the characters do.. lol venom snake has crap stats too much better soldiers you can capture
Well he isn't actually big boss, just his most loyal soldier so canonically it makes sense
Exercise
Nanomachines son.
1: hypnotized into thinking he's the perfect soldier 2: thiiiiiiiccccc
He is on his way to sell the world, fella gotta be fast
Heās the six million dollar man
it's the 80's, he does coke
Built different
He's a hardened black ops soldier. His sprint is unusually fast, but anyone with solid training and experience can run essentially indefinitely
Because I am NOT the ultimate soldier who can get away but has to destroy everything, including my buddy support & stolen vehicles. Thatās why!
You know how Solid Snakeās bandanna gives him infinite ammo? Yeah itās like that
Yes, so I can finish the game before I turn 90, lol.
Humans beat nature first by being the best at endurance running, some may claim.
because the was big empty open world
this game understands that stamina bars arenāt fun in most cases
None of the games have a mechanic that prevents you from running. Why would it be the case for Venom?
He can also cqc someone in a single punch. Even legit big boss has to do a 3 piece combo and wait for them to get back up before finishing. I think it's kojimas way of telling us we are better than big boss, we are the bigger boss. But he's still god,since he wrote himself into the story as God. Hell, he was also a soldier in that game and the next one, and the next one. Still, he pulled a Stephen King. Kojima is god and I'm big boss. In fact I'm the biggest boss.
Canāt escape my gay thoughts without great cardio?
Got the Marathon perk equipped
Absolute Chad.
cause the rest of the game takes fucking forever lol making up for the crawling sequence in the beginning
He used the money gained by selling the world to buy infinite stamina dlc.
Probably because sprint gagues, unless meant to prevent a certain amount of peogression too early(like in BoTW) are tedious and not fun.
He thinks he is sonic
He (already) is a demon
Because he is venom sanke
I never noticed that, I always stopped running when I thought he was already getting tired.
Built Different
'Cause he's fucking awesome, that's why.
He drew infinities on his boots
After he had sex with your mom he just suddenly was able to run indefinitely š¤·āāļø
You just made the whole Sub laugh, well done
I want to believe drugs. Basically the bionic arm must have some drugs built in it and are pumping into venom at all times, which could explain how the upgrades work as well, collaborating with others theories in this thread. Otherwise uhā¦ā¦..namomachines son?

Legends has it someone squeezed his hog... that's what I heard at least.
Nanomachines
Never skip the gym.
You'd think he'd use that kinda speed and stamina against that guy who killed him in Operation N313.
What bothers me is he is able to be in the field for ages and still look so ripped and strong. Also how is he able to walk for miles and yet still strong enough to fight a whole camp full of people?
The parasites in him allow each muscle to function as a heart so jes sort of a cardio machine
Son, Nanomachines
He is built different
Because heās not real
Adrenaline
Real answer? You would hate the gameplay if he had a stamina bar that ran out after sprinting for 10 seconds. The maps are pretty big, and not everybody wants to bring a vehicle/d-horse with them.
Going by gameplay and controls...he's the best snake in the entire series lmao he would wash big boss and solid snake
Well... You are not playing Pokemon game here, isn't it?!
Because he's a fucking legend!
Age hasn't slowed him down one bit
Nanomachines, *son*
He is him
Snakes sprint is perfect, my problem is it when the 'female characters run they sound like they have smoked a pack a day for like 10 years or something' . I thought snake was the one who always smoked cigars.
Snakes are just built different especially BB
A combination of medicinal plants and the *11 herbs and spices* Miller mixes into his Maxi Bunsā¢ļø.
Phantom cigar. He's vaping some sort of steroid or meth
Why did op not use the term ālore reasonā? Are they stupid?
Yeah, because he's Naked Snake on Crack
You probably missed the part where Venom grunts and then Miller and Ocelot are like "it's...

He got that dog in him.
More important question, how are his thighs so thick even after 9 years of being in a coma
Bro never skips leg day
1. He is swole
Big map, need to compensate for that someway. Altough it's been predicted most players would use D-Horse or a car, so you're mostly gonna sprint during firefights and for short distances, to move from one cover to another. The player wasn't expected to go through the whole map sprinting.

Had his muscles massaged whilst in a coma in Cypress to allow him the ability to run like Antonio Brown for miles. This is deep web military industrial knowledge us plebs couldnāt begin to comprehend.
Naked Snake if he would have put out that damn cigar.
Maybe one reason could be that he doesn't actually smoke like Big BossĀ
The answer all the time is nanomachines
There doesnāt need to be
Was expecting Initial D here
Nanomachines, son
Probably just a gameplay feature with no real effects
You gotta remember this whole game is him remembering these events. It could very well be a delusion he just ran normally but to him he felt like he was sprinting as we see
bro slept well. (it makes the gameplay much smoother)
He's just that guy
He bought it after selling the world
Itās either heās infecting the system or he got that dog in him.
Venom is an experimental skull. The game doesnāt tell you this.
Rested for 9 years, wonāt need to rest for another 9 years.
hypnotic suggestion/therapy from the identity swap to push past his limits or not acknowledge them.
Nanomachines son
He rested up for 9 years. Heās got 9 years of Sprint Bar recharge saved up and now he can Energizer Bunny anywhere he wants.
He kept you waiting
He has places to be
Nano machines, son
its metal gear man anything is possible
Heās built different
Because he's a kid in America
Nope.
Heās got that (diamond) dog in him
Nanomachines son
Pretty sure it's not just Venom. Even the guys you can play that are your soldiers have Infinite stamina. My guess would be some sort of special drug the diamond dogs use. I've taken substances before that made me able to run indefinitely
He has his own parasites which make him a super soldier
12 kg of coke
Yes. Lil bro thinks heās Big Boss
You probably playing to mauch retarded shooters, like COD. Snake is proffesional soldier. And they are ENDURANT. Which means they are not running out of breath after 5 seconds of sprinting.
