Spoiler:
True enough, there was much more content quantity-wise, you can say that about older games in general, especially in the FPS genre. I wonder if that's the result of the change of the gaming industry (like shorter times of production (unconfirmed) , publishers on the developers' tails) or if it's just the higher complexity of modern games. I tend to believe it's the latter. After all, development teams are much bigger these days as well as ever-increasing budgets ... and I'm not talking about marketing expenses here.

Still, I would've loved to have more hubs of course. However, if they really put in the other hubs as they originally planned (Montreal, upper Hengsha, unnamed Indian City) with the same quality of atmosphere, immersiveness, freedom of choice and basically everything that made this game so good, then it's safe to say that we would have had to wait for at least another year for a release.
