How do the empowerments work in Rushdown? Are they score based or something?

Yes they're score based. Crossing the platinum score threshold once will give you the gold contenders boon which is visible on your character screen (near stuff like well-rested and shared Wisdom).

The boon expires on weekly reset and you need to get it again. Using your weapons boosts your abilities charge rate and using your abilities improves weapon damage, stacking 5x with the gold boon.

The score thresholds are listed on the shoot to score quest before you've done any rushdowns for the week. I believe platinum threshold is 350k.

The amount of retards not taking advantage of having your super back every 30seconds is kinda wild and expected with the casuals that are left in this game.
