What the Hell WG T 28 is nothing like the actual vehicle You done screwed up
C-can… Can it be? Is it finally happening? THE T28 HAS FINALLY BEEN UN-FUCKED?! What manner of gift from the WG gods is this, that they have finally decided to trow out that abomination of a model they had the audacity to call “T28”?
But really though; it’s good to see that WG is actually taking the time to examine how their game has evolved and change tanks based on that. The T28 was really the last relic of the pre tier-10 Med/TD days with it’s pitiful speed and strange made up design that existed only to provide weak spots for lower-tier opponents. It’s not the best solution, but at the very least now it looks like it actually has something to do with the T95.
Actually, this model might actually be correct. According to The_Chieftain, there are early prototype hulls that were made. Source: http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index.php?/topic/478420-t28-replacement-t95-early-prototype/
It actually looked more like it should be from the start. T28 was T95 variant without additional tracks and now it resembles this and it look gorgeous. Only big difference is mantlet. http://www.armorjournal.com/Walkarounds/SPG/T28-T95/T28-T95_NACM-07.JPG
I beg to differ

Looking at my picture of the T28 at the Patton Armor Museum from years back, I agree. The most striking thing is the round mantlet on the real T28 versus the rectangular mantlet on the WG version
That Type 61 just looks fucking amazing
that t28 tho, SEXY
t28 most uglyyyyy!
I can allready see me flaming, cause im bouncing on that angeled ass xD
I don’t like that T-28 is now a totally made up Tank by WG same as T110E4. (T-28 is the name of T-95 without it’s 2nd Tracks)
But at least future players of “T-28” will have good gun depression and no 200mm huge frontal weakspot anymore.
The T-28 is in the russian tech tree also, WG fucked up this so badly then.
What makes you think, that old t28 was the historically accurate one?
The t28/t95 was basically one tank, but the old t28 render looked nothing like t95 frontally. Why they changed the back which was historically accurate you might ask? Well because Russia, obviously 🙂 😉
There was an article before (not here) that the T28/95 had several hull prototypes. So I guess WG is making the T28 a different hull variant from the T95 we all know and love/hate

what is now made up about the t-28?
lack of rust?
T28 is actually a real designation for the t95 and theyve actually made it closer to how it should look when then t95 has its outer tracks removed, not the made up front hull that it currently has
To the people that still dont get it. T28 was a made up tank by WG, now with HD its a bit less made up.
You just take the T95 HD model, remove it’s 2nd Tracks and NOW it’s T28.
________________________THAT’S ALL ! _________________________
No remodeled mantle ! No different backroof ! No different lower plate size ! No different Armor values !
T25/2 open-top AGAIN, T28 hard to recognize 😀 This line is difficult for WG to decide, it seems.
The T25/2 and T25 AT are probably stock
As for the T28, perhaps this is just the stock configuration~
T25/2 without turret cover?
Maybe this is what the t28 looks like without the extra fuel tanks? Still I think it looks cool
If only they also considered buffing some of those…
I am currently grinding the t28 and hate it but THIS THING looks super awesome
On on hand the t28 is slightly more historical, and on the other hand why not give it the actual mantlet or fuel tanks?
It does look better now in my opinion, and one can see from all of these renders how WG has progressed and made the had models better over the first batches. Now just for the duck…( and that press account Japanese tank).
I still can’t get over how beautiful my beloved T28 is!!
And if the armour profile is close to the existing profile, it will be a true Tier 8 Doom Turtle.
Nice WG! T-34-2 and 110 at last! Now for the final SD tank remaining, the AMX 40.
