Student Project

Hi out there! I found this cool forum a few days ago, and I realy enjoy it.
May be I should introduce myself first...so ladys and gents, my name is Dennis, I'm 26 yaers old, living in Kaiserslautern/Germany and studying Virtual Design in 4. Semestre.

After learning some basics, I decided to make my own project with a group of 3 guys.
Maybe I can post some concept arts or renderings of it.

But first i have just a few questions about Game Design., and I hope you'll answer me this, without telling me " use the search" , because I used it enough

So here are the questions:

1.How many Polys should a Level have (It should be a Level like Gothic or Risen may be a lil bit smaller) I just found some information about PS2 Games..but in times of Quad-Core it should have changed I think?

2.How many Polys should have a human character (maybe with clothes,weapons,Items and without all that)

3.How many Polys schould have other things in a game..like enemies,animals,houses..

I know you can't tell me the exsactly numbers of Polys, but perhaps you can tell me how many Polys a current Game Character, or the other things have in the games,came out in the last 2 years.

I'd be very thankful, because i would have a standart i can work with!!
TNX @ all!

Two things I was linked to by someone else on a discussion we were having. Reminded me of this post and figured it would answer your questions pretty well.
