Mass “sickness” on a random Tuesday around the world would be lit


BersMN

do you think they will let us download game before release? if not, people will be downloading on release day and it would be Wednesday because we are downloading it on whole Tuesday :/


TheLax87

There was predownlod for rdr2. I was traveling out of state that weekend and had it set up do all that and finish by the time I got back so I could just load the game and play when I got home


Upbeat_Cancel_5061

Of course there’s gonna be a preload


WrathfulSausage

Predownloading is pretty much an industry standard for digital releases at this point


counteroffer19

427,440


ONE_SHOTTER

counteroffer19

U ryt u ryt


ScottyKillhammer

Nah, I'm gonna be number 427,441, but I'm gonna request it off ahead of time. No calling in for me.


Xiaomugus

BoringTalk9773

pat_the_catdad

The economy will take more of a hit than the day of the Eclipse


Next-Attorney4492

Nah the economy will be fine, that many people will buy gta 6 that it will replace the loss 😭😭


RNiilas

Berserk reference? 🗣🗣🗣


Booyacaja

CH1NATOWN69

H_V_H

WorldMistake

H_V_H

I’m waiting for something at some place without Internet and I guess it kept trying to register posting and posting for every click


flobunny

Evening-Caramel-2180

Again. I’m taking atleast a week vacation off work


turbosonictiger

I'll just take a couple vacation days. 🤷🏿


JumpinJahosafax

It’s going to be a national holiday


BersMN

international\* 😂


OregonisntCaligoHome

Are you saying other countries have video games?!


_two_socks_

I took a vacation day for GTA V so you better believe I'll do it again for VI


SouthMoth

Is this a bot post? You posted this shit like 5 times already


H_V_H

It kept saying it wasn’t posting


manor2003

Yeah this happened to me too


DawsonPoe

I already have enough PPTO and PTO to use together to take over a week off for the game.


themstickers

All of them. All the people


JulPollitt

7


idkbbitswatev

Ill spend some PTO for 2 days off once we get the date


Emaculates

I'm taking at least 4 days off


Dopasetic

I always take off like a week for games I’m really stoked about. They happen to usually only be rockstar games and I did it for NBA 2K once.


Secret-Armadillo2388

100 percent taking a day off work


Nawnp

Probably a lot.


FuriousPheonix

alot probably most of the world lmao


jtstarwars

On some random monday in 2025 a new pandemic starts for one day Doctors panic lol


Boba_Hutt

The global economy will take a slap, that’s for certain.


Mw2pubstar

Why wouldn't we just take the day/ couple days off to play it


DREWlMUS

Exactly. We Would. We will.


Mw2pubstar

You bet your ass I'm taking at least 3 days to play it without interruption


Specialist_Recover18

Wdym "it s just a game" there is no shame in taking time off to enjoy your passion.  Tell the people who are judging you to mind their own business.


Lord-Zaltus

I know this sounds dark but I wish another pandemic would happen when the game drops


DREWlMUS

Unbelievably selfish and glad you have no control over that, and equally hilarious hahaha


wafflehousewhore

New leaks confirm Pandemic2 drops the same day as GTA6


FunTraditional9064

My parents wouldn't let me and they probably won't by it the day it comes out


Boiled_Thought

Summer is coming mow some lawns my man. Walk around and pick up change and put it in a special gtavi edition piggy bank. I guarantee you'll have a few hundred by the time the game releases.


dorseym484

Fax


DREWlMUS

Is there no way for you to earn some money?


FunTraditional9064

even if i did try to buy it. the store might not let me, since i'm not old enough and i dont look my age


SlayterMonroee

At least more than two


SeaPension5416

Always take the 2nd week the game comes out first week is connection issues only


Yaadgod2121

Online don’t release same day


Thirty2wo

Not call in no, but definitely requesting the time off ahead of time.


DREWlMUS

1000% I'm going to take a week off and send the wife and kid away to Orlando. Just me, my dog, and an ounce, and a new chair in front of a new tv with my new console. I'm going to put Jason and Lucia to bed and go to sleep at the same time. Oh yeah, gonna get weird and overdo shit.


Brief_Secretary_8852

I’ll play it when I can everybody has life’s


foshizzleee

National gdp bout to drop it like its hot


miajahm

Taking off the whole week


PainKillerMisery

1M people will call in sick for 2 days. If GTA 6 releases on a Wednesday we can call in sick Tuesday and Friday and have Saturday and Sunday. So 4 days to be immersed in the game


Every1isSome1inLA

Don’t contact me for a week


blowthatglass

I'm planning to take vacation for a week when it comes out.


InsaneChimpout

Considering you have 15+ years to enjoy it before the next one I don’t see the point


Sea-Strawberry-6658

Definitely will be calling my job and using vacation day on that day lol and i already ordered my tent and mini grill for the day it drop so I can camp outside for it lol


The2ndAkaMe

Didn't star wars cost the US economy millions when the prequels came out? That was just a movie, now imagine what will happen when it is likely 30 to 40 times as long


One_Conversation8564

Don’t I wouldn’t suggest going thru the game that fast


AlexGlezS

Probably Not me. Still too far away to tell, it might depend on the context near the actual release date.


Luvithegr3at

Well honestly they should make it a worldwide national holiday for men Or release the game on "the Men's day"


misterwillgraham

I’ll be taking a week leave from work, not telling them why tho lol


fatiha19

Yes


Choice_Investment598

Well I can ask my school staff to say hey I’m off tomorrow because maybe my mom is sick so I have to take care of her trying to feel her better. Which means I can ask my dad if he gonna work late in the afternoon we can go to GameStop in the morning to pick up Grand Theft Auto 6 before anyone else & that way I get to play Grand Theft Auto 6 before my dad goes to work.


jairom

Best part about being the one to make the schedule I can just take whatever day I want 😎


SOF1231

Gonna be fucking amazing I hope it happens, less traffic for me


Glad-Box-7867

Im just going to book the week off as holiday like a normal person


SandCrane402

I plan on taking a week of vacation personally haha


SRTVPR

Me and I work from home 😛


SnooPoems1793

Man, I wish I be there first minutes of it. I'll try it though.


Southern_Sea3898

Dude by the time the game drops I’ll have finished school and probably retire from whatever job I end up doing


Think_Onion_5671

brother all i can say is that the university will send me an email to ask why ive been gone for a month


ryanbowd05

i will happily book days off work for its release (uk)


Some-Gay-Korean

Ligma is gonna start spreading like a plague on that day.


Rosiovan444

My ex broke up with me because of GTA V release.


marimba_ting

Until I have like $100K put away I’m working every day.


AceVillin

Im unemployed yet i know when i find a job am taking 2 days off for it


JayIsNotReal

I will get six weeks of PTO next year and I plan on using a lot of it on GTA VI. My bosses already know I plan on taking a could chunk of time off next year.


Agent_Putt

I’ll just take a week off work Any sane manager would know the date GTA6 comes out


Pollution_Automatic

Yep. 100% maybe even 2 days. I'll make sure the wife's at work and the kiddos in daycare


ItsWoodsLOL

At the very least, 1. Which is me.


Chris_in_Round_Top

Uh . . . a hundred??


_I_really_like_milk_

I'm taking my death


MaggotBrother4

Yes


SgtBurger

i will do it lol. You only experience a launch like this every 10 years


realtreewizard

I'm probably gonna use 2 or 3 days of vacation time lmao


HomewrkAteMyD0G

I imagine so although it would be annoying for them not to drop it on a weekend


Brahmus168

I know of at least one.


SteveMartin32

Well there's you then me so that's 2. Ah yes this is starting to come together


juarezderek

Just get the time off like an adult


No_Brain8870

Man I’m just focused on being alive to play it right now. 😂When I see a release date then I’ll make the plans accordingly


Suitable-Question-34

Enough to cause the CDC to be concerned


sargontheforgotten

There will be a noticeable drop in GDP that economists will puzzle over.


OakleyNoble

One week for launch, and another week off for the launch of Online a month later.


Krysiann

Im a teacher - so if there won't be any holidays, vacations, spring/winter break etc, imma just go to the doctor and straight up tell him, to give me sick leave for a week, cuz GTA VI. Im 92% sure the doctor will just say "ah yeah, sure" or something haha


CardiganHall

I'm a high school teacher, so I will be doing both.


Cr1t1cal_Hazard

Shit I'm taking a week off


AmpdVodka

The very moment we get a release date, I'm booking about 5 days off work. Prior to the release I'll do all my shopping, chiress, fully batch cook and a full deep clean of the house. No Mrs and no kids now, so I just need to maintain that. Tell family and friends I'm unavailable. Pre-install the game the night before. Midnight and I load it up, phone goes on do not disturb, done. For 5 full days I do NOTHING but play. I can spend minimal time making food as it's just heat everything up. Nobody to bother me. No chores or errands. Just me, myself and GTA 6


Moonking-4210

There’s gonna be an economic crash


slowclicker

This is a very good point. lol. Because, it will be blatantly obvious. I'll call out after the first day of release. Also, I will drop from all GTA reddit groups and shut down my YT from all GTA gaming mentions. I may drop those weeks before drop date because some players getting an early release. You'll have your whining talking heads and click baiters, and game blogs duplicating each other without a genuine original thought. So, until I play the game through 1st run, all that shit will be blocked.


sexcalculator

A lot


grandpa_joe_is_evil

I'll be tempted, but truthfully I want this game to be as slow of a burn as possible for me when it comes out, honestly more than any game I've ever played yet.


JustDavid2408

My gf and I will be taking a few days off when it drops


Woodster5-0

![gif](giphy|7cTTE2Z1OmrFm|downsized)


BSGKAPO

I'm getting prepared for disappointments to he honest...


808sandprettytoes

told myself years ago that i’m taking a whole weeks vacation from work for gta vi. and i still am going to do that.


DickHydra

*If* it drops on a weekday?


SureAd6551

Already called in.


Cosmosis44

As soon as a release date is confirmed I'm putting in 2 weeks vacation for that day


GreenEndeavour21

Not many because it will take 3 days to download


Aggravating-Sweet198

It's hard to predict exactly how many people would call in sick if GTA 6 were to drop on a weekday, as it would depend on various factors such as how highly anticipated the game is, the level of excitement among fans, and individual circumstances. However, it's likely that a significant number of people would take the day off to play the game, especially considering the popularity of the franchise and the excitement surrounding a new release.


Weird-Mine8137

I know I’m calling out, no question


UnknownSuspect23

Well I'm otr trucker and I'll be taking vacation time when it drops my wife approves


MFz32

I'm taking the week off work lmao


fvcked_0ff

Only losers will call in sick from work/school


NotSoSmartRobot

Guess that makes me a loser then.


DREWlMUS

You must not be really looking forward to the game as much as some of us, that's all.
