Hello, I am doing a project at college to design a network for a company. I chosen to build one for a new game development company but wanted to find out about real game companys. I just like to know how many people are usualy in a game development company. Such as size of the programming team and the graphics design team. lastly, i would like to know what kind of software they use. Such as for graphics design and …

A company could range anywhere from 1 to 1000 computers. I think you could safely go for a 30 people company, as your average.

Other data , such as number of programmers , graphic artists and what programs do they use is irrelevant, to the network building.

What would be relevant to the topic would be only the internet gateways/firewalls and the version control systems, that need to be placed on all computers and are the only things that use the network. Otherwise.. Photoshop is irelevant ;)

If you want to complicate things, you could go for a multinational game company, that has the same things in each location and a VPN on top of them.

Hope that helped.
