Overall this game is a absolute masterpiece but if this is your first time playing a game of this genre then you should consider the following.
If you are a solo i would recommend you to play on modded servers from 5x to 10x with kits available so you can get used to the guns and premise of rust, make sure not to find the most crowded server at first but don't play alone on a server as you'll never be able to get used to the mechanics of pvp fights in this game.
If you are planning on joining a group of friends or have played games similar to this in the past be prepared for the player base of rust as it is filled with people who can be toxic, cheaters and overall horrible but don't let that discolour your opinion as you will find those who are generally good people and will be willing to help and give advice. If you are going to be starting new with a friend or two then consider the same advice for if you were a solo but play on a lower times server e.g. 2x .
Overall the game is a very good experience that can be filled with adrenaline fueled moments that make you love the game and that's what makes it worth it, the gunfights, the grind and the experience.

A great video to watch to show how amazing the game truly is would be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmMdX1wvi84
