Players can get a starting pistol as their first weapon after completing the tutorial. Any subsequent weapons need to be purchased from the robotic arms dealer at BuyMore. This shop is already marked as important on your mini-map, and can be traversed to at any point of time. The higher the quality of weapons, the more will be their cost. Cash is the in-game currency that is used to purchase weapons, and players can get it in abundance by completing missions, quests, and events.

Weapon Proficiency

Weapons can also be upgraded in Codename Vice, but not in the way you think. See, each weapon has a proficiency rating, which is completely personalized player-to-player. The more you use a weapon, the more proficiency points you will earn for it, resulting in an increase in proficiency level. Upgrading the proficiency of any weapon rewards you with Cash, different rarities of modifiers, and even Diamonds. The last reward for any weapon proficiency is an alternate skin that looks mesmerizing.
