Here's the official Minimum System Requirements:
Internet Connection: 256 kbps Broadband connection (512 kbps connection or better recommended)

yeah that's the system requirements with online synching ON. If you switch it off however, it barely uses (or requires) any bandwidth.

I know I can play it with 14kb/s, and I know 14kb/s is about 18 times slower than 256kb/s.
I'm not teasing you in any way, just giving a fair estimate on minimum internet requirements
