What does the tutorial tag mean on a Rust server?

It means the server has Facepunch's new-player tutorial enabled. You start alone on a private island and learn gathering, crafting, building and cooking. When you finish, you join the main map with everyone else. Rates, group limits and wipe schedules stay as they are.

Are tutorial servers good for new players?

The island is a safe first hour, but the main map is the same as any other server. Check the Group column and the gather rate in Tags before you commit. If you want a lower-pressure start after the tutorial, look at the beginner list .

Do tutorial servers wipe on a schedule?

They wipe like any Rust server. Most wipe monthly, some weekly or biweekly. A wipe resets the map; blueprints reset only if the server chooses. Each server page carries a next wipe estimate, drawn from live data.

Can I team up on a tutorial server?

The tutorial island is solo, but the main map allows teams as normal. Check the Group column for the cap. Pick a server whose limit fits your group, or one with no limit if you are unsure.
