I have a question about this, apart from the obvious (no need
for internet), how will this make the game any different than
playing in a private region? If I read some of the forums about
this, some (OK, lots) people seem to think that means that soon
after patch 10 there will magically be a bigger map mod, so we
won't discuss anything about that now. I am also considering
that there has been no mention of official modding tools and
that MaxisGuillaume's recent mods are built from Oppie's
SimCityPak and work online.
So really, apart from starting a new region, inspiring myself
from Skye's O'Megacow, banking 200M+ to finance the region and
going about my game play in the same way I always have, will I
even notice a change?
Also worth noting that I have never once played this game as a
multi-player, I have simply contented myself with building my
own regions, in private.

The changes are that your city is no longer saved to a Maxis
server, which means that you can save and load a bunch of cities
without the game having to be connected and taking too long.
Also, it eliminates the multiplayer features, like region
challenges, global leaderboards, etc :)

Oh and it will also open up a whole new level of modding :)
