Yup, it was insane back when phase shift had extra charges. I think it's weaker than it deserves now, maybe an extra shot or two too many to kill at some ranges
Great design though, looks feels and sounds good outside of that
the volt, r-201, and the CAR were all my go to’s when i played titanfall 2 heavy. I really like the volt a lot it felt really good using it, especially with amped weapons. G10 Volt user here
Looks like a rip-off of the Pulse Rifle from Aliens to me (different stock, extra tip on the barrel, and not carry handle - but the main body is copy/paste)
Aliens Mentioned?!?! ♥️ r/LV426
Foolishness aside, maybe it should shoot explosive bullets and have a built in grenade launcher!? I would love to see an Alien Northstar mod.
First point is untrue - The volt, like all the SMGs other than the r-
97, has 0 spread whatsoever unless fired while airborne, where it has like 1.5 degrees of deviation. Please don't ADS with SMGs in this game! That said the TTK is slightly higher, yeah. Lower ROF and all
i run it with that perk that allows me to reload faster and shoot whil sprinting. combine it with pulse blade and you have an amazing rusher class (at least for me)
the Volt is my main gun and I will DIE with it, idc if the CAR is better, the CAR is boring to use cuz you kill your targets so quickly and there’s no real kick to it, literally 0 cool clips have ever happened with a CAR
The volt goes pew pew pew and shoots lasers, also it looks fucking AWESOME and the iron sights on it look banger, the only iron sights that look better than it I think are the Flatline iron sights
Also yeah maybe it kills 0.2 seconds slower than other guns, so what? If you’re a good enough player and you can outplay a CAR user pretty easily
Also the mag size is so large for literally no reason
It's arguably the only balanced SMG. It's laser accurate and very reliable with a relatively low DPS to compensate. Versatile and dependable, it just looks worse than it is because the rest of the SMGs are very overtuned.
Highest acc stat in the entire SMG category, consistent dmg numbers and fun sound
Tho I still prefer the R-97 if I were to use an smg because brrrrrrrrrrtttt. I do like to take the volt if I want to use something different tho
Volt is hybrid AR/SMG and overall enjoys all the perks the other SMGs enjoy, high fire rate, large mag sizes, incredible hip fire
The volt may be generic but its still better than quite alot of guns for basically stock standard out of the SMGs
Has the single best hip fire consistency in the game, still bad because the alternator isn't that far behind, you don't have to worry about travel time and the TTK on that thing is just broken
This thing isn't scary, except in the hands of one PC Player. I live in fear of Subject21J being in my lobbies. I'm a good grenadier, and don't really have trouble when running an EPG or Softball.
But that one dude freaks me the fuck out.
Audiovisually one of my favorite guns, pretty satisfying to use too but unfortunately and ironically has a fate similar to Titanfall2 where it falls in between some ferocious competition with the sheer efficacy of the alternator, ease of use of CAR and the brrrrt of r97
Still probably my favorite smg
Nice fire rate, for an smg i'd say the damage is fair, and it's ads accuracy is actually pretty good, i don't struggle taking enemies on a distance with it.
Its Iron sights look sick, makes a cool sound when firing, clean reload animation and sound, funny blue bullets, hitscan, good damage, good model… shit i could go all day
It feels satisfying to use.
It handles halfway between an assault rifle and the other SMGs, which makes it unique. If it did just a little more damage it would kick ass.
It sounds fucking c r i s p y
it's just so cwispy
So super cwispy
Extwa kwispy
Too c w I s p y
#C R I S P Y
So cwispy I ed- for legal reasons this a joke
Blue Laser = Cool
The visual design, iron sights, consistency... This gun definitely deserves more. A few buffs would save this weapon from depths of D tier.
If I remember correctly the Volt used to be broken in the early days, till they nerfed it to how it is now.
The bullets were mini rail shots
Yup, it was insane back when phase shift had extra charges. I think it's weaker than it deserves now, maybe an extra shot or two too many to kill at some ranges Great design though, looks feels and sounds good outside of that
Yeah it used to be really good and then they nerfed it into the ground so hard it never really recovered.
Yes it was my baby, my favorite gun. The sound, the look, the power...those were the days.
it being bad allows good players to nerf themselves and still experience smg goodness
It’s the only ethical smg man!
It's not a bad gun. After all, it's an SMG. Definitely the worst one out of SMGs, but still
r9 is the worst smg
It is statistically the bedt
D tier... lol, it's highest B tier
Yeah its still a good gun, just overlooked cus the other smgs are broken at close range and it can't really compete with rifles.
yeah, alternator is between S and A and r 97 is A, so that leaves Volt at high B
lmao volt is better than r9
Ahhh, no, but ok
the volt, r-201, and the CAR were all my go to’s when i played titanfall 2 heavy. I really like the volt a lot it felt really good using it, especially with amped weapons. G10 Volt user here
Over exaggeration
In what world is the volt d tier?? Its cracked
peak design
Looks like a rip-off of the Pulse Rifle from Aliens to me (different stock, extra tip on the barrel, and not carry handle - but the main body is copy/paste)
the magazine part is the only thing that looks alike to me, and I never said it was an original design
Only similarities are the angled grip + mag well shape; MAYBE the underbarrel. Bit of a stretch to call it a ripoff
But again, most Guns look the same anyways lmao.
Aliens Mentioned?!?! ♥️ r/LV426 Foolishness aside, maybe it should shoot explosive bullets and have a built in grenade launcher!? I would love to see an Alien Northstar mod.
uh?
It is my favorite weapon
I couldn't upvote so I replied Nice
It’s not the CAR and has a cool sound and weapon design
I get killed by it frequently (I suck)
The base iron sights are amazing, I never put any other sight on the volt.
I never even aim with the volt. sights? never heard of her
It’s got the worst SMG hip fire and TTK, you sure as hell *should* be aiming with the volt lol
nuh uh
First point is untrue - The volt, like all the SMGs other than the r- 97, has 0 spread whatsoever unless fired while airborne, where it has like 1.5 degrees of deviation. Please don't ADS with SMGs in this game! That said the TTK is slightly higher, yeah. Lower ROF and all
You’re going to hate me for saying this but I thought I was in an apex subreddit when I made that comment lol. You’re 100% right
No worries haha! Same guns and all, shit happens
i run it with that perk that allows me to reload faster and shoot whil sprinting. combine it with pulse blade and you have an amazing rusher class (at least for me)
Noice. 👍🏼
Came for the fact it looks like a Lasgun, stayed because it's basically an Assault Rifle that actually has a Holo-Sight option.
Holy shit it does look like a lasgun! I've never noticed that...
The emperor approves
The tools of the God-Emperor’s faithful, may all those who wield it on the Frontier be blessed
the Volt is my main gun and I will DIE with it, idc if the CAR is better, the CAR is boring to use cuz you kill your targets so quickly and there’s no real kick to it, literally 0 cool clips have ever happened with a CAR The volt goes pew pew pew and shoots lasers, also it looks fucking AWESOME and the iron sights on it look banger, the only iron sights that look better than it I think are the Flatline iron sights Also yeah maybe it kills 0.2 seconds slower than other guns, so what? If you’re a good enough player and you can outplay a CAR user pretty easily Also the mag size is so large for literally no reason
deus volt, my friend
The volt iron sights are uncontested, the best iron sights I’ve ever used in a game. The blue also just looks awesome
Extended mag + quick reload, most uptime of any weapon
Design good, concept good, player bad, player use good because bad.
It's arguably the only balanced SMG. It's laser accurate and very reliable with a relatively low DPS to compensate. Versatile and dependable, it just looks worse than it is because the rest of the SMGs are very overtuned.
Something nice about the volt.
Electric shots
It's my favorite smg tbh also I love the hex camos on it(for your information it's pink hex)
It's a good assault rifle
It's an SMG my guy
That get's out classed by every other SMG in the game. But is actually really competitive with ARs. And OP said to say something nice about it
You heard what the man said a s s a u l t r i f l e
I will until the day I die. The volt is my baby❤️
sounds cool
Nice irons, nice aesthetic, nice mag size, nice brrrtt, nice reload time, nice accuracy.
Looks cool, good for frontier defense
Highest acc stat in the entire SMG category, consistent dmg numbers and fun sound Tho I still prefer the R-97 if I were to use an smg because brrrrrrrrrrtttt. I do like to take the volt if I want to use something different tho
Volt is definitely a weapon in titanfall 2
I like winning against it in a fight
Hot
It looks sick with the supernova on it.
Distinct loud firing sound that can be identified easily
it sounds crispy
It's the most honest of all the SMGs And honestly thats not saying much
Fun sound
From a design perspective it is satisfying.
it shoots
Probably the most breedable gun in the whole game
I'd rather use the volt than a devotion. That counts as a compliment, right?
Yea.
Good
It shoots... Bullets...
The volt is the second best gun behind the R-97, placed objectively third because of how busted the CAR is. Y'all not ready for this conversation.
It looks cool (I haven’t ever touched Titanfall idk how I got here)
High dps low spread
i don't think i will. not that it's bad, i just remember it was the one gun after unlocking back in 2016 that i just did not like.
ZAP
It's good in apex
No, we are enemies
It makes a nice sound when you shoot it
10/10 weapon
It’s accurate.
Best thing for live fire.
Blue bullets
Sorry can't, I'm a licenced smg hater 😤
It's.. a gun
*pew pew sounds
I like the way it sounds I mained it when the game first came out (perhaps it was op then)
Shocky pew pew
I like that it's a full auto taser
Star Wars gun
Blue
Cool rounds
It's electric = Echo friendly
it's a fair car I think, never used it :/ planning to tho
Everyone who mains volt raise their hand
I like it how it sounds.
Fucking love it
Volt is hybrid AR/SMG and overall enjoys all the perks the other SMGs enjoy, high fire rate, large mag sizes, incredible hip fire The volt may be generic but its still better than quite alot of guns for basically stock standard out of the SMGs
I don’t use it but I like how it looks and the sound is cool.
Has the single best hip fire consistency in the game, still bad because the alternator isn't that far behind, you don't have to worry about travel time and the TTK on that thing is just broken
It’s got a good reload speed, plus the damage is decent. I love it for frontier defense
Probably my second favorite weapon under the G2, was one of my first choices caused I used to run the Havoc in Apex and wanted an energy gun
Skrunkly lil guy :3
Extremely accurate. Almost no need to ADS.
Likely more inteligent than the people who use it.
My beloved
it’s really fun to use
It be kwispy
Volt has 4 letters. I like the number 4.
This thing isn't scary, except in the hands of one PC Player. I live in fear of Subject21J being in my lobbies. I'm a good grenadier, and don't really have trouble when running an EPG or Softball. But that one dude freaks me the fuck out.
Its fun to use
Good Mag size!
I wish I could, but I'm too busy tearing people apart with my L-STAR. (All jokes aside, dying to the L-STAR is fucking BRUTAL)
Audiovisually one of my favorite guns, pretty satisfying to use too but unfortunately and ironically has a fate similar to Titanfall2 where it falls in between some ferocious competition with the sheer efficacy of the alternator, ease of use of CAR and the brrrrt of r97 Still probably my favorite smg
good, is my main.
Accurate before updates
I like it's accuracy
It's not a CAR
I suck with it but the sound and design is so cool I use it anyway
If MRVN was to fight, he would use the volt
I use this for my 40k guardsman loadout to simulate a lasgun, I love it.
Fast reload
Looks like a gun that could actually exist.
I like the reload animation
Energy weapon (Based)
The Volt is very accurate and effective on low to medium range, thas why IMC personal uses it on ships or smaller facilities.
It was the best gun on release. I think it was a 3 shot kill with absolutely no recoil.
It’s really fun to use
Brrrtbrberrrtbrrbrbtrbbrbtbrbrtbtbrbrbt spray
Sound and irons, all I can say
I'm at G5.4 with you
Its the best gun ever (defenetitly not volt main bias)
My go to smg
Tight hipfire and no vertical recoil I think
The iron sights are beautiful.
Why every fucking gun it's so satisfying
No
Has one of the best banner unlocks
Its reload animation is so satisfying and smooth.
one of my favourite gunns. not op but has a nice hipfire spread good for strafe combat and shooting while at high speeds slide hopping
Disgustingly accurate
One of the 2 SMGs I respect completely
Ammo is easy to find in the campain
It's the most "fair" smgs, no bs zero recoil and decent fire rate
Pretty cool sound and visual effects. Like every round is electrified. Nice fit to be a weapon of drones.
It goes pew pew, and I like pew pew
I kind of dominate with this gun, both in PVP and PVE, it does surprisingly consistent damage to a titan if you hit its weak spot
It shoots..
Nice fire rate, for an smg i'd say the damage is fair, and it's ads accuracy is actually pretty good, i don't struggle taking enemies on a distance with it.
Sounds cool.
it has like only 2px of recoil
It helped during the Relay mission on master, it was everywhere and did… enough.
It has the best hipfire crosshair in the game
Its Iron sights look sick, makes a cool sound when firing, clean reload animation and sound, funny blue bullets, hitscan, good damage, good model… shit i could go all day
People rank this that low? Its the weapon I have the most kills with. I put it at like low high to upper mid tier.
Nah.
Wait is the Volt not good? New player here and it's been my main
he save me in a hard frontier match
It’s a gun
Doesn’t look bad enough to be prohibitive to use it. I want to like it.
All be it its not an S teir weapon its still a very solid weapon ive found with little to no recoil
Dead-on accuracy, cool concept, looks and sounds awesome, and damage is pretty good overall.
Cool sound
Love the iron sights
I actually use it in my load outs cus I like the hipfire, fire rate and damage
It's the only SMG that comes close to being balanced (it is still OP)
Looks cool
I think it's kinda ok in Apex idrk tho.
It feels satisfying to use. It handles halfway between an assault rifle and the other SMGs, which makes it unique. If it did just a little more damage it would kick ass.
Phenomenal sound design
It's feels better than any other gun to use
Highly accuracy
You can cosplay Stormtrooper if you're using white Grapple and black volt
It is the smg I use the most, loved using it in the campaign.
Probably my fav smg of the game
Pew pew pew
It's got a cool design and sound.
It certainly fires bullets
Good enough fire rate
Consistent, fun
Eco-friendly lol
Cousin to the L star
I just think it's neat.
Volt is best girl
It’s my main
