Ok so I have played this tank for 20+ battles now on the 7.4 server. This tank needs a boost in speed in a bad way. With some of these new battles like capture the flag (my team capturing the flag), this tank is pretty much useless. It is impossible to get in range even to snipe on some of these maps without getting killed. It should at least be bumped to 30 mph, so it can get out of it's own way. On other maps, sure the tank is fun to play. You can defend the base (not so fun) or get into a position to snipe from distance. But, again, when some of these new maps require tanks to be able to move and not sit in one spot, the T28 Proto is an easy kill.

At least you have a turret, think of your poor cousin the T28 "glass cannon" Sure the 120 packs a punch but if your by yourself... They will swarm ya bad or Arty will land a big fat kiss on ya.. I think The speed needs to be bumped up a lil' 30 mph is WAY too much though. Gotta remember how much that pig weighs.. Its hard to push that much steel like its your Honda Accord.

30MPH??????
30mph = 0.03km/h

EDIT: ^------my silly mistake

When I'm playing arty I love to see a t280pro.  Its like a free kill!

30 MPH = 48.28 KPH

Wait, what? 30 mph equals about 48 kph.

Ninja'd.

He seems to have assumed that "mph" is "meters per hour".

you mean 30 km/h, 30mph would be faster than a pz 3 (exactly  48.28032 km/h/ rounded is 48km/h)

Wow you have an already released tank on the test server? No way!

I have it on the "live server" and let me tell you it performs just fine.

Let me guess. You got the T28p just because its the next one on the tech tree.

Never mind checking the stats to see if its something you actually want to drive.

Sometimes you have to drive tanks you dont want to get to tanks you do want. Stats are a difficult measure if you will like a tank too.

okay i want to direct this to the makers of this game....I Love this game and I am a TD addict I love them ...all of them...EXCEPT of course the piece of Crap T28 prototype. Why!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! why would you put such a worthless  peice of garbage in the tech tree of awesome TDs. 18KM/H seriously? I can physically run faster than this tank can travel. This isnt even realistic. It doesnt have to be the speed demon like the T49 but holey crap at least give it 25-30 KM/H...I am almost done with this game soley because of how you guys screwed up this American Turreted TD. I Do not enjoy playing this tank at all it upsets me greatly and is an easy free kill for anyone on opposing force. Really....what in the heck were developers thinking when they made this tank??? Trollers you can spare me your replies, looking for developer feedback not some retards trolling a very legitimate complaint.

Or you could be like me and just want to drive them all.

my guess is that he is those very special driver who "scout" with Hellcat TD, then get surprise when enter t28 prototype.




EDITED: just check his profile and he has zero experience on USA TD at all. so he don't know what he talk about.

I agree, the T28 proto is in serious need of a speed buff. It's /frontal armor is alright, but still can be penetrated by other tier 8 heavies. Heavies, I remind you - that are much faster.

Then add the serious lack of HP, and the fact it's a sitting duck with an OPEN TOP. Which means any time it's spotted it will be killed by the enemies arty almost immediately.

Seriously, an average speed of 18kph on semi uneven terrain, and a maximum of 30kph down hill is to much to ask? The second it hits any hill it drops back down to 7kph.

I don't know about you guys but armor seems useless in his game. Add that with gold rounds in pubs(which I don't see often, but enough). I think I'll stick with my French mediums, and others vehicles that have speed and use my wits, rather then brute force

thank you for the agreement Hellseer, this tank, even if  played correctly, which is sit and wait for the good shot, is still CRAP. When you get overwhelmed at a base you are a sitting duck with no evasion whatsoever. It hits hard and thats all fine and dandy but when you cant even move to cover in time after you get a shot off it makes this track utterly worthless.

KV4 is wieghs like a 100 plus tons and it goes 30 kmh so why dont they fix the speed of the T28 and the T28 prototype for they are under powered at best

No! the tank is already very powerful i mean already people run away when T28 prots are near them the armor is amazing the gun is amazing the speed is the only thing keeping this balanced
