    They Shall Not Pass adds French people, 1 New Tank, about 5 new weapons and a couple of new maps. Unfortunately, Conquest doesn't currently cycle to the new maps, the new Weapons are Progression gated behind little annoying missions, like: Get 50 kills with Shotgun Slugs. Yeah, 50 kill with the most annoying gun. Screw that.

    So after all is said and done, you are left with the new mode,

    So after all is said and done, you are left with the new mode, Frontlines (Tug of War) to play, along with the new Tank. This is extremely underwhelming, and not a good start to their DLCs, which is a shame, since BF1 is good otherwise.

    They should unlock these weapons that people already paid for, and give the maps to everyone so that the player base isn't stupidly split. If they did that, I might consider recommending it.

    I'm starting off this review to firstly say that I really enjoy Battlefield 1. However, I do not know how they charge $60 for premium (to include this DLC with others obviously, but this is the only one out for now).
    There are almost no lobbies with players for this DLC. 7pm Central time and only 4 conquest lobbies with players, everything else is empty. Maybe this will be a great DLC

Maybe this will be a great DLC once EA decides to just give them as part of the game, but I don't see how $60 for premium is worth it if there are no lobbies to play... I called EA and asked them for a refund because it was stupid to buy a game if you can't play it...

    Absolute dumpster fire and an Insult to every BF-Veteran. Still better than 2042 tho. DONT BUY!

    If you’re still playing Battlefield 1, you should definitely get They Shall Not Pass, as it offers two outstanding maps (and two decent ones) and truly amazing atmosphere. [05/2017, p.63]

    They Shall Not Pass is a good start to making that season pass feel like it was worth the money, though I doubt it will pull many people into buying the full game.

    Battlefield 1 is a brilliant fast-paced military shooter that I spent a lot of time playing, especially over the recent Christmas holidays. The additional content in “They Shall Not Pass” is fun to play, but it does leave you a bit sour when you look deeper into it and see so many assets which have been reused. On top of that this content also splits the community, and pressuring players to purchase the DLC or be left behind. There are much better ways to handle delivering extra content to players, unfortunately this isn’t one of them.
