Same crew.
Many worlds.
Misfit Mercenaries started in Ultima Online in the late 1990s. A lot of games, a few names and a couple of decades later, we're still a group of friends who play together and look after each other.
How we got here
- Late 1990s
Born in Britannia
A handful of players band together in Ultima Online. The name, the jokes and most of the people stick.
- The MMO years
A galaxy far, far away — and then some
Star Wars Galaxies and its emulators, EverQuest II, Fallen Earth, APB, SWTOR, ArcheAge and New World.
- Many names
Aliases on file
Misfits, Misfit Mercs, The Pimp Legion of Doom, Lumberjack Commandos, FDWS (Future Droids and Weapon Systems) and The Hemp Collectors.
- Milsim & survival
Boots on the ground
Arma 3 and the original DayZ Mod pull the crew toward squad play, survival and running our own servers.
- Today
Our own servers, our own mods
Three self-hosted PvE DayZ servers (Deer Isle, Sakhal and Nasdara), plus in-house mods and open-source tools.
What we stand for
Mature, not boring
Goof off all you like, but know when to act like an adult.
Respect everyone
Members, new players, enemies across the map. No exceptions.
Play clean
No cheating, no exploiting. Banned from a game? Not for us.
Never pay-to-win
Servers are funded by members. Donations are voluntary and buy no perks.
How MM works
No ranks to grind and no dues to pay. Just a long-running crew, an open door, and servers built around the people who play on them.
Anyone can join
Our community Discord is open to everyone. Behind it is a core crew of about 40 who have been gaming together for years.
One crew, many games
We have moved through MMOs, milsims and survival games together. Right now home is DayZ, and wherever we go next, we go together.
Players shape the servers
After every wipe we collect feedback and run polls on the economy, AI, events and gear. The results go straight into the next season.
Run by players
An admin team keeps the servers, mods and backend running. A staff team handles support, moderation and the community side.
Our hardware, our rules
Every server runs on hardware owned and paid for by members. No rented boxes, no outside owners, no ads.
Funded in the open
Donations are voluntary and buy nothing in game. We publish exactly what the servers cost. See the numbers.
Come play with us
Hop in the Discord, grab a server and say hi in voice. That's the whole application.
