Question about the overshield/camo

This is a quick question somebody should be able to clear up really easily.

When you pick up the overshield or camo, does it activate automatically or can you hold on to it before powering it up?

There’s no timer to decide to use it whenever? I mean I don’t care but I thought I saw one.

The only timer is the one that tells you how much Active Camo you have left. It does apply immediately [as always], though.

I’m almost positive you have to activate it
watch this game play in the first 15 seconds ehen the player grabs the OS
Here
notice how it says “activate oversheild”
And if you remember from the multiplayer reveal gameplay against epsolon and optic there was a few times when players walked over the oversheild thinking they grabbed it but had to backtrack to activate it

When you pick it up the O/S or Camo activates by itself, you do now have to hold down the activation button to pick it up though no longer do you just walk into it. So no you can’t pick it up walk round the map and then activate whenever you feel like if that answers your question OP.

ah cheers, I must have misunderstood
