    This weekend I was actually able to log on and play, so I think I got about 12 hours of game time in.

    From what I can tell, some things are simulated client-side, some things are simulated server-side. Anything relating to resource trading seems to be done completely server-side, which would make sense since doing that relies on other players in your region / in the world. You are also constantly being affected by things in your region such as crime and pollution as well as the population and composition of your neighboring cities.

    I took a screenshot of my region after creating some tourist spots in my city. You can see how the only tourists I'm getting are ones that actually exist from other cities in the region.



    Asking for an "offline patch" for this game is asking for a different game entirely. This SimCity was clearly built from the ground-up as a multiplayer title.
