FHM3 without online mode is a step back in my eyes, despite all the development of the game itself you seem to have done (great job with that!!). In my opinion, playing against human GMs adds a dimension to the game that makes it largely uninteresting to go back and play offline mode once you have tried online... What an anticlimax for an avid online league player! I fully understand the need to focus on improving what most players request, but I believe there is significant potential for online leagues to become more popular with a better working online functionality! I hope some focus is put on this for future games/updates.
Although greatly disappointing to read about the removal of online play, it seems that you still have a great product in the works. I have preordered and will eagerly await this mode to be added back in.
