How do I increase my rank in the alliance?

Unlike other games that let your officers monitor your actions or actual participation in Alliance activities, there isn't one in this game. What you should do instead is to socialize and make sure that people actually do know you in the alliance. Be vocal about asking for co-op activities in the game that you need the help of, or that requires multiple players to beat. Also, make sure to do your part in contributions and sending help (soldiers for reinforcement or resources) as people in the alliance need them. Apart from the usual "Power Level" requirement to reach higher ranks, it is important to get along with your superiors and to be very active in the game to become an R4 or an Officer.
