No. There's actually two endings aside from the third one that got cut. There is a plot point that remained unresolved though.

It's real, but it got pulled, presumably due to the Kojima issue. They finished some of it and you can see it on YouTube. It also resolved that missing plot point.

Also, can confirm that my love of headshots and shooting people was punished with every soldier being equipped with helmets and riot shields. Not that I stopped doing either of those things, mind you.
