Volt players that still keeps speed boosting (farting in other players faces).
Its a old player problem but its still annoying as it was in 2015.
And it should still be polite to stop spam casting speed boost around other players as volt when other player ask mr. Volt to stop spam casting 7 second speed boosting.

And yes i know speed is awesome and i should learn how to cope with it and just follow the stream bla bla bla same old argument.
Sure most Volt players that knows how To speed boost can do it with 15 seconds or more which is some how acceptable.

But these 7 seconds farting Volt players that follow you around and are a fixated on only boosting you with speed and dosn't support with shields or shoocking enemies. Its actualy harrasment when they dosn't stop when other players ask them to do so.

Volt players may be new players or can't read english but they they should be able to read the room and that is no excuse to keep Spam boosting other players.

Wolts strength may be his speedboost and the late game chocking volt ability. but he has 3 other abilitites plus passive abillity. volt isn't only a Racing warframe.

If your looking for a fast warframe Volt has great speed but isn't the best choise.
there are other warframes tha suit this role better like:

Gauss - mach rush
Titania - Razorwing
wukong - Cloud walker
Yareli - merulina
Wisp - haste mote
Excaliber(umbra) - slash dash

Yes you can back flip to cancel speedboost but by the time you are "cured" mr.
friendly Volt comes around and recasting the speed boost either becuse he thinks you need more speed or his own duration timer is only 7 second short.
In this Scenario back flipping is pointless since you have to repeat constantly because mr. wolt appearently relies on speed boosting to boost his dps and travel speed.
So nope back flip is actualy a bad thing to do since Trolling Volts see this and keep annoy the chosen victim who thinks back flipping is the sollution.

And nope overspeed isn't always a advantage.
Eg. players that uses or relies on meele combo's is practicly denied to do this since the speed suddenly is ramp up with no warning. And the desired combo effect is ruined and ends with weak meele swings.

And again Devs can't do anything about this problem.
It's entirely a playerbase problem and lack of moral/polite manners.
in my opinion Volt is the only warframe able disrupt or manipulate other players to go faster without consent.
Both cases is clear harrasement which can't be solved with game changes. Devs tried but It didn't change anything the speed droplets where just planted in doors ways or cast directly in front of other players.

The problem isn't the Volt warframe its how the Warframe is being used.
Nor can Devs do anything they are helpless in this matter remove or completely remake Volt will start a firestorm of complaints from devoted Volt mains.
And Nerfing never have been a solution since it will provoke or make matters worse.
The sollution to this is players finding their own personal choise action.

My solution to farting spam casting Volts is just to keep the speedbuff and let them speed ahead while walking the speed boost off. If mr volt is annoyed because he can't pull me along to get things done faster bad for him.

As fake said

As a Veteran player, the ONLY thing I use Volt for, is speeding up escort missions. Yeah, I know he's really good in other areas, and you can definitely support and CC with him, but we got like literally 50 other Frames for that, and I'm a Nova main.

Anyway, I just shove a TON of Ability Strength and Duration on him, giving like, 25 seconds of x3.2 movement speed (plus the Sprint Aura, cause why not?). I call the build "Gotta Go Fast" (or, in the case of Cetus, "I Got ♥♥♥♥ To Do"). Then I just use my guns or whatever.

The game was (originally) designed so that each Frame should build for a specific thing. That's what EVERY Frame, companion and weapon has 3 pages for it. In my case, I couldn't really use my "Escort Volt" for CC, because then I'd be sacrificing Strength and Duration for Range.

And while yeah, while something like x2.5 speed might still seem fast to most people to fix this problem, I don't think most people do those escort missions in bulk. For instance, to cap my Cetus Standing, I have to run Narmer Bounties 6 times a day. That somehow takes one to two hours. Every day. The drone escort part alone takes like 2 minutes of walking, if unbuffed. Fully buffed, that escort takes like 40 seconds. Every second of that I can get rid saves some of my sanity, which I then have to use to suffer through like 4 more hours of daily BS.

TL;DR: It is, what it is.

stop sprinting? It becomes about as fast a sprinting without the volt buff and a reasonably fast frame.

But that said, yeah, solo. I can think of no reason I'd want to tolerate a volt's speed boost unless it was time to head to extraction.

I was going to suggest similar. Or just a system option that could easily be toggled in-game; disable/ignore player buffs.
am i the only one who actually enjoys farts in my face?

just me???

♥♥♥♥.

Loki with switch augment.
Extra points if you target buff frames as you leap off a cliff.

Takes time to search for a subject then crawl down to the archives and dig one up.

Gotta train those necromancy skills somehow I suppose.

Ok, i main Volt now, thank you
Kind of surprising to see someone cry about the speed boost since literally every mission I've played with others is just bumrushing to the end.

Tenno seem to be practicing neck-romancing, in anticipation of WF:1999 and the smexy Hex'y.
