karma for last years fail ww2 and bf1 success now its the other way around, bo4 has bigger success than ever mostly because of battle royale mode and bf5 will probably be a financial fail in the end
the game is already way ahead of fortnite and pubg combined in terms of viewers on twich

This game is actually pretty good, royale mode is quite interesting, it's nice to be able to control helicopters in royale mode. Zombies are fun too.

Game is ahead in Twitch only because Ninja and other high profile Fortnite players are playing this now. Ninja and Disrespect are streaming BO4 right now, and even so, BO4 has only twice as many viewers as Fortnite. Plus, it's new. These numbers at this stage don't mean that much.
BUT.
I enjoy blackout a whole lot. Bought the damn game for it, and it is instantly my fav. battle royale by a mile. Very solid gunplay, very good balance, short but intense games. It is very similar to PUBG, this is more arcadey, and with zero jank.

You are comparing a newly released game with a game that has been topping the streams for months. So yeah, your initial statement means squat, singleplayer games get crazy views like that in the first days.

So? Can't you realize that a limited beta and the weeks after release have a similar effect? It's the novelty that attracts viewers and obviously, streamers are cashing on this opportunity. Yesterday evening Fortnite already had 20k-50k viewers over CoD.

not in the 200k, more like 50k-70k, i know what youre saying but BECAUSE this is has a BATTLE ROYALE mode and its CALL OF DUTY and already the top streamers like it more/ or just got bored of the previous battle royale games this will probably remain top on twich
and yes it had a beta and it was free that gave people the chance to test it and if it was shit then probably it wouldnt had so many viewers now since its the same
bf1 had a beta too and probably will have half of the viewers in the first week then mostly in the 10k by the end of 2-3 week, had low viewers in the beta where cod had many

In the first couple of days of Beta, Battlefield 5 was topping on twitch. Battlefield 5 didn't even showcase its BR mode during the beta.
Twitch viewership is not that relevant when it comes to the success of a game. Not all games are as watchable. The streamer also makes a big difference, not only the game that's being streamed. So maybe we should end this discussion here.

all this talk is pointless with you, just quote me in a few weeks and we'll see if cod is still top or not. and cod had 2 betas where the first one didnt had so many viewers couse it was not battle royale

Gear is plentiful so you don't have to spend much time worrying about that. So then you just find people to shoot as the area slowly shrinks. What's so fascinating about it? How did this catch on? Is PUBG better? |
I don't really enjoy BR games either for the reason you just put forward, but I can understand why people like it:
- those games are easy to play with a couple of friends and that immediately makes the experience a lot more enjoyable,
- the first couple of minutes can be a very nervous skirmish that's reminiscent of classic FPS games if you choose to drop into an area a lot of people dropped in ( and these areas have the better loot ),
- the area shrinking increases the tension as the game progresses, when it's down to a couple of people you start caring about winning and topping the 98 other players that died before you for a ego boost shot,
- this shrinking area allows you to try to get a good strategic positioning, planning your moves ahead, etc.
While I'm not a fan of the genre, I can understand why people get a kick out of it. There are reasons so many people enjoy it and it can't just be that all of them are stupid and/or don't know any better 
PUBG is slower than COD, has better gun play and is more realistic overall but has a lot of flaws related to engine/netcode ( don't know how much of that has improved, didn't boot it up in a long while so take that with a grain of salt ).
Fortnite is cartoonish but has the huge benefit of being free and running well on low-end rigs ( = huge hit for the younger audience, which is the one who can devote the most time into games ), and features the whole construction aspect the other BR games don't - some really master it to a whole new level.

Are there any numbers for how many are playing it on PC?
Does Battle.net have that?

Blizzard even stopped showing player numbers for WoW few years ago. There is no way to tell how many play the games on Battle.net.

Left 4 Dead is 10 years old now and is a much better zombie game. I recall having much more fun with the zombies in the first BO as well.
This game does nothing well, it tries to be a jack of all trades with everything it offers, but the result is a multitude of modes that are all very average. It's like they thought, 'if we just shove every popular thing in there it'll be a winner regardless!'. Battle Royale, Zombies, and a slide of the same old MP modes. Time will tell if it has any longevity but I'm personally done with it.
My mistake:

I should have gone with Spellforce 3, Insurgency or something else on the wishlist. |

I think Insurgency would've been the right bet for you
