Yes, once you already downloaded it, the game as well as your saves, are saved onto your hard drive. So you can definitely play it offline.

I believe you can play offline however you won't be able to receive any game updates and you won't be able to do things like upload videos or pictures to facebook or youtube, a cool feature in the game. Your stats can't be uploaded to the network so you can't see how you are doing against other players and also you can't play against another opponent online if you don't have it connected to the internet.

If you want the updates then you have to hook it in. But there really isn't updates at this point. There is one update as soon as you play to play online, I am pretty sure you need to be online. But playing online is5 really that different then offline, the only difference is obviously more players, but the enemies get stronger.

You will need a internet connection, type in the activation code located in the CD case. This is a one time thing, and you must have the CD in your computer to play. It's a great game so enjoy.

Yes. You can play the game with the computer. Obviously, you'd need to have internet in order to play with other (real) people around the world, though.EDIT: The other reviewers are correct in that you can also play a turn-based game off the same computer with friends.

Yes you can and its a really fun game, if you have any other concerns i recommend downloading origin and trying out the sims city free trial before purchase they do offer a free trial of like an hour or so which is also offline play as well. Once the trial is up you can still continue where you left off if you buy the game.

Yes, the online feature has been added into the game. Once installed in your computer, the internet is not necessary anymore! Multiplayer still works too.

Before an update that happened last month. The game had to be connect to Internet in order to play ( with a server, which you couldn't always connect to). So you needed internet and hope a server had enough room for you. Now is completely fine. And I'm not sure if when you purchase the cd for the game if it still requires an account with origin.com. If you do digital download like i did, you need to create an origin account and insert a code in order to download. So long story short, you can now play offline. Anytime, anywhere.

If you have the disc no However if you have the code yes Luckily you can play off line after you download it, and downloading steam is very simple and fast

Sorry to say this, but Offline is in fact, single player only. You'll have to go to a friends house or set a LAN network (Have two Ps3's/Xbox's in the house and play online.)

alright the answer to your question is yes. You need access to steam however but you dont need to be connected to the internet. simply open steam in offline mode and go from there. Usually my steam account opens as soon as i log on to my computer then gives me a choice to connect to the internet or continue and open steam in offline mode. Open it in Offline and you can play Civ 5 offline. hope this makes sense

You HAVE to have internet. You can play solo, but other people will be there and, if offline, you cannot play.
