@honkalot: Also take note that you can order supply drops and helicopter pick ups and other stuff that is really useful that way without having to button through all those menus!
@monkeyking1969: really depends on the university, but most of them do two semesters per year meaning exams will sit around June for semester 1 and around November for semester 2. The exact dates will vary across universities but they'll generally fall in that time frame.
@honkalot: I think that symbol comes up more if you have d dog? I can't be sure but I think a few permanent markers for the cracks appeared when I did a couple of missions with d dog instead of my usual go to buddy
@adequatelyprepared: I went last year to pax and ended up not doing as well as I'd hoped in my exams the week after... Not to say pax was to blame for it, but it probably didn't help :P
If you're still having trouble try using the humble and completely plain mace. It was kind of depressing when I found out I'd essentially finished most of the game (I can't quite remember if it was the whole game, but it definitely was the majority) using the plain old mace I bought at the start of the game.
It was actually really easy for me. When the skulls pop out the APC and the tank both become useable so I jumped into the APC and just shot the shit out of them. I think I ended up killing a couple in the APC before it started to blow up at which point I jumped out and got into the tank and killed the remaining two. Didn't even have to bother driving!
@whitestripes09: The horse is actually pretty easy once you get the hang of it, that's not to say it isn't a complete disaster but it does get better after a while. Doing the races and stuff (which I forced myself to do so I could get the saddlebags earlier :P) does make it easier. If you're having trouble with a big group of enemies the horse comes in handy because you can just sprint through them and one shot a few people along the way (and repeat as necessary). With regards to the horses character I'm pretty sure Geralt mentions somewhere that every horse he has is called Roach (and that I think has more to do with Geralt's character than the horse's). Also I feel sorry for you, I came across absolutely no big bugs. I did get the fist thing happen to me a few times but you can easily fix that by running away a bit and then taking out your sword so it's really no big deal.
Pro-tip if you do decide to play Rising: parrying is important. If you're finding the game incredibly difficult then it's because you're not parrying. ( I spent the first hour or so wondering why the game was so hard... turns out I was being an idiot and clearly missed the bit about parrying at the start)
