This Astaroth .57 Attachment Is Basically a Legal Wallhack in MW4!
See enemies through walls without cheating! The Astaroth .57 Infiltrator attachment gives MW4 players a surprising tactical advantage.

The Astaroth .57 might be one of the most unusual sniper rifles in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4, but its real advantage isn't simply its firepower. With the Astaroth .57 Infiltrator Apex Attachment, players gain an ability that feels remarkably close to a wallhack: detecting enemies hiding behind walls and cover.
And unlike an actual wallhack, this feature is an intentional part of the game's weapon customization system.
The Astaroth .57 Infiltrator Can Detect Enemies Through Walls
The Infiltrator is a specialized Apex Attachment that combines sonar technology with radio-frequency pulses to reveal enemies who would otherwise remain concealed.
According to Activision's official Modern Warfare 4 weapon breakdown, the attachment can detect opponents through cover and behind walls, although its radio-frequency penetration is limited.
This distinction matters. The Infiltrator doesn't provide unlimited visibility across an entire building, but it can give players valuable information about enemy positions before they expose themselves.
Imagine holding an angle in Multiplayer while an opponent waits behind a nearby wall. Normally, you would need footsteps, a UAV, or direct visual contact to anticipate their movement. With the Infiltrator equipped, the sniper's detection system can potentially reveal their presence before they emerge.
That's where the comparison to a legal in-game wallhack becomes particularly interesting.
Instead of relying entirely on reaction time, players can use the information to anticipate enemy movement, prepare their crosshair placement, and potentially secure the first shot when a target becomes visible.
There's a Significant Price for This Advantage
The ability to detect hidden opponents sounds incredibly powerful, but the Infiltrator introduces two important restrictions.
