I ran into some issues last night on BF2 transitioning from BC2-style gameplay while trying to catch the tail end of {HRD} BF2 night, mostly dealing with weapon selection (the mousewheel is so lame in BF2, I have a mouse button bound to rapid flip down the weapon list, but in BC2 you can only use the mousewheel and switching between weapons is "fastswitch" without having to click on the weapon to switch to it); using the commo rose (wait I have to click to spot?); forgetting (how) to go prone (as no such option exists in BC2); and dealing with the fact that the SRAW is SACLOS. On the flipside I think I've gained some increased accuracy with automatic weapons; never gotten that many kills with the P90 before or soldier kills with the rocket launcher. :4 :9 :6

Re: transitioning between BC2 and BF2 gameplay
I play BC2 as well and have those same problems when coming back haha but BC2 is dumbed down quite a bit for the console. ie, the como rose is gone, you can't go prone... etc. Even though it's fun, I don't think it will ever replace BF2 or 2142. And games made for consoles simply can't compare with games that are specifically made FOR PC. Like BF2 and 2142, and hopefully BF3.
Know what I mean^ And I'm not just sayin that 'cause I'm like a "proud" PC player looking down on console players... I'm saying that because I have both and it's teh truth!
PC FTW!

Personally I don't like the mouse-wheel as a weapon toggle. I never used that in BF2 either as I've always bound everything to a key or mouse button.
The things that come up the most for me are:
Proning: Often in BF2, I'll forget that yes I can prone
Heavy Weapons Guy: Thanks to the HWG in BF2, I'm always secretly hoping the HWG guy in BC2 will throw me some ammo. When he gives me medz instead, I realize indeed I'm playing BC2 and not BF2
Tanks: Spining the tank turret around quickly and popping smoke are wonderful.
Helos: Meh - do we really have to go there? It's only ever all about the gunner anyway now.
UAV: Woah - those are cool!
For my Helo and Plane fix, I just play BF2. For everything else, BC2 is what I call...."A ground pounder's wet dream."

Also since I have my flight controls swapped, the UAV forward-backward is now reversed (since i have "down" map to up-pitch and "up" map to downpitch for the planes), which makes it even harder to use.

YAY!!
