The developers tried their best to make the game seem "fluid", when the game loads, they put in a cutscene to hide the fact that it is loading. But it is obvious that some levels are chopped up. But than, the chopped up ones have much more detail than the large scale open world ones. So I guess it is a compromise that has to be made.
Blood Money was quite detailed.

The levels feel smaller because of the breakups, but it isn't necessarily a bad thing.

After putting some time into the game, I have to say I am enjoying it.

The little touches are amazing, the way that police and swat may show up if you go guns blazing is nice. Instinct mode isn't at all cheaty, it's pretty much the same functionality as previous games maps, just in an overlay that doesn't take you out of the action. The point A to Point B parts of the game aren't bad, they were already in the game before, just all in one map. They also add tension to the game.

For those complaining about the fact 47 has to run from the cops in Chicago, it makes sense why he has too.

The only things I haven't liked so far is that 47 can conceal long guns like a GTA game, I much preferred the Blood Money system where he tucked him under his shoulder or carried them in the other hand. Also at the point in Chicago when you're fleeing from the cops and the helicopter chases you, it opened fire on the bird cages despite the fact it hadn't detected me. I also had one ps3 locking crash the first time I went through the bird cage area.

Edit: Another small qualm I have is that weapons just materialize in your hand when you equip them. Same thing when you change into a disguise. But it's not game breaking.
