Some players who want to try Call of Duty: Modern Warfare run into installation issues. More specifically, PlayStation 4 users sometimes find Modern Warfare installation suspended. What causes the installation to stop responding and what can you do to fix the situation? Don't worry, we're here to help.
Modern Warfare installation suspended on PlayStation 4
If you've found your Modern Warfare installation suspended on PlayStation 4, you need to check for additional game downloads. Modern Warfare installs the game in multiple parts and the installation will be suspended if you don't download each of the add-on packages. Without these add-ons, you won't be able to access all of the game's content.

Of course, the amount of game you can access depends on the add-on packages you have downloaded. Assuming you were told that the installation was suspended while trying to start the campaign, you will need to verify that the campaign add-on has been installed. If it appears when you try to start multiplayer, you will need to install the multiplayer add-on.
Fortunately, it's an easy fix. Start your PlayStation 4 and log into the PlayStation Store. Search for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and, on the game's store page, look for the Add-ons button. Look for any additional packages you haven't downloaded, especially those like Campaign Pack 1.
You can also select the option to re-download the game, at which point the PS4 system will start downloading all the necessary files. If you go this route, be sure to double check the download and installation progress in the PS4 notification area.
The message that Modern Warfare installation is suspended appears when you don't have one or more required add-on packages. There are several available, including options for both campaign and multiplayer. Install the add-on packages you are missing to lift the suspension and get into action.
