Call of Duty Modern Warfare’s Season 6 update happened earlier this week. Since the major update in Season 5, Infinity Ward has been struggling to provide a new update free of bugs. Similarly, this update too has its share of game-breaking exploits.

Season 6 of Modern Warfare introduced two new guns in the game. SP-R208 bolt-action marksman rifle and the AS VAL have both been added to the gunsmith for customization. The AS VAL is the one with the fresh new exploit.

In the gunsmith, the AS VAL has an attachment called the ‘SPP 10-round magazine attachment’.? It is this attachment alone that makes the gun disgustingly over-powered.

The description for the attachment reads, “10 rounds of 9x39mm SPP armor-piercing ammunition designed for increased penetration, improved accuracy, and superior damage.”

Armor-piercing and bullet penetration is definitely not something that is new in Call of Duty. Yet this particular attachment makes the bullets penetrate through walls that resemble the type hackers use. For that reason enough, the low magazine capacity is easily made up for.

In a video by TheXclusiveAce, the YouTuber discovered the spoils of the attachment by testing it out in a custom match.

He described the bug in an interesting set of words. “If you throw these rounds on, the cover is just concealment for your enemy because you can shoot through it like its butter.

When a popular content creator is reassuring the viewers about a bug, one can be sure that it has already started to spread within the community. Reddit users posted a few incidents with the VAL bug, which otherwise would have raised protests against hacking.

The second one is from a Warzone match where the player predicts the position in the beginning and shreds his opponent through the wall.

To overpower this exploit, players only need to pair it with the snapshot grenade. This will reveal the enemy position on the map for a brief second. Therefore, hitting those two taps with the knowledge of your opponent’s position is child’s play when your bullet will penetrate through anything.

There is no comment as of yet when this bug will be repaired by the devs. Till then it is advisable you avoid playing Search and Destroy matches.
