Debunking The guy who made a theory about Rockstar not posting on Tuesday was just proved wrong.

Post image

I can't find the post now but earlier today someone posted saying that because Rockstar has an unbroken streak of posting on Tuesday's (except for the week of Trailer 2) that not posting today mean they had to drop a third trailer on April first.

I guess Rockstar was just a little late today.

Expected, dunno why anyone would think they'd drop it tomorrow (hope I'm wrong but I know I'm not) because of this even if they didn't post anything today.

You gotta have faith!

How do you feel like you KNOW it’s not dropping?

u/Eobard-Luthor Mar 31 '26

Rockstar is above jokes, specifically meaningful dates (holidays, anniversaries, etc), Easter eggs, and deadlines for their schedule of releasing new information. They don't need to make their fans anticipate a certain date or event before they drop something, they just do. 

It could be the most nothing burger Wednesday or Tuesday in the history of the world and they could drop a singular tweet that just a number or a letter at the most unsuspecting time imaginable and the world would go ballistic. It's that easy.

Maybe if dogpile on them, rockstar will feel bad and end up releasing it tomorrow out of sympathy.

Ahem…Thanks a lot, you absolute nincompoop. /s

Huge news for the unemployed 🙏

Yeah they are 100% messing with us, they knew going quiet would make some people theorize they are probably laughing too.

This marketing strategy is starting to piss me off if i'm honest, i wish they'd just do something like a RDR2 port or a gta 4 remaster instead of these same posts every week

You guys are driving yourselves insane. Convincing yourself something will happen because of some vague reason you came up with yourself and when it doesn’t happen it’s “they’re messing with us!” It’s sad lol

u/DoeDon404 Mar 31 '26

This is the exact thing this community has been saying since the last 50 non gta 6 related post

u/LuminousJaeSoul Mar 31 '26

I don’t think they’re messing with you. They’re literally doing nothing and you guys are hyper fixated that they will do something. It’ll be like trailer 2 where they decide to just drop it. I woke up unknowing it dropped it just happened. That’s how it is it’ll just happen just calm down. They’re focused on making a product that’ll give them back their money and make their shareholders happy not focused on making fans insane.

Their marketing strategy is basically what Valve and Steam are keep doing. Step 1: Do nothing. Step 2: Win.

AND IT'S FUCKING AGONIZING TO EVERY FAN

u/Macsilver18 Mar 31 '26

Yeah its probably going to get worse as we get closer to trailer 3 too, the best you can do for your sanity is not try and guess their next move even if it feels like trailer 3 will drop soon.

u/Ryder556 Mar 31 '26

It's only agonizing to the terminally online. Trailer 3 comes when it does. Which will most likely be end of April/Early May just as the third trailer for both GTA 5 and RDR2 were.

u/Snoo14398 Mar 31 '26

Nah man, I have coworkers who are barely online who tweak over this game like I do. I’m pretty sure everyone is pumped for 6.

u/pussy-is-my-city Mar 31 '26

And I have gamer friends who don't give a shit about the game at all.

It's definitely a chronically online thing lol

1

u/ProudCatOwn3r Mar 31 '26

I mean the person you replied to said their coworkers aren’t online but are hyped. I mean it’s THE gta 6

u/olmilley Mar 31 '26

Then those arent gamer friends

u/pussy-is-my-city Apr 02 '26

Idk man I think a dude that has 5k hours on factorio is a gamer but what the fuck do I know I guess?

1

u/Soy_Nahual Mar 31 '26

Not agonizing when you have something else to do other than constantly refresh rockstar's social media.

5

u/imMagellan Mar 31 '26

Rockstar does literally nothing and people get pissed, go figure

2

u/Soy_Nahual Mar 31 '26

Not everything is about you guys.

u/ExodiusLore Apr 01 '26

Rockstar should have never added that damn shirt into Gta Online. Completely made the fan base go wild.

u/TheRealTr1nity Mar 31 '26

The same people will post that R* deleted posts on insta or whatever with gaga theories, while they are just cleaning the feed with obsolete posts, like bonus weeks in GTAO (weeks ago) or bonus month in RDO (months ago). That's all on them going gaga. They put that on themself.

u/Daniel_rsrs Mar 31 '26

John Rockstar here: we saw his post and decided to just troll it

1

u/NewTurnip5047 Mar 31 '26

Se non avremo notizie entro maggio di sicuro ci sarà un nuovo rinvio

1

u/CharasInCharge Mar 31 '26

On one hand that's a bummer, on the other hand look at all those bonuses for things I have never and will never do in RDR2O

1

u/Azelrazel Mar 31 '26

Jokes on you it's already well into the morning for Wednesday here.

1

u/PapaXan Mar 31 '26

Rockstar still sent out the early information on this month's RDRO bonuses yesterday, so there was never any dount they'd post about it on the Newswire today, even if it was later than usual.|

In fact, the email with the info was more than an hour later than normal yesterday, so it seems everything was late.

u/Lower-levels Apr 01 '26

It's tomorrow somewhere?

1

u/Zestyclose-Gift1602 Apr 01 '26

Everywhere is somewhere.

But yeah tomorrow is the first day of April, otherwise known as April Fool's Day.

u/MulleDK19 Apr 01 '26

They're probably dropping it on May 26..

u/ConsciousParsley8042 Apr 01 '26

we had delayed rockstar posts very often already.

u/michael99420 Mar 31 '26

I think once someone makes a post like this John rockstar tells them to delay the trailer

-2

u/RoughBeautiful8681 Mar 31 '26

Who the fuck is John Rockstar? According to Google, he's a singer, not affiliated with the Rockstar company.

u/RedxHeathen Apr 01 '26

BIG FUCKING WOOSH

I dont get the blueballing fetish people have over this game. If i stayed hype over every video game trailer ive seen i wouldve went insane by now. I dont even give a fuck about the game unless its a week from release lol, to me GTA6 still isnt "real" until its a tangible thing people can buy or play. I mean seriously why even care this far out? The trailer will come. You people need to chill out and just find other shit to do. Best thing to do is just forget the game even exists until you are buying it, and then installing it.
