So let me ask some questions. Im just on my 2nd week of hte deep desert farming, getting me and my buddies all loaded on t6 armor and such. Working our way through.

We just make a vare bones base in the Deep Desert with storage, load that up on spice and materials, have very little water and such in the base its just a hub. Whats the bonus of building big bases with a bunch of power and wind farms every week?

Depends

1) Building costs 50% less in Deep Desert. If you don't have much in the way of materials, it is much cheaper to build things like a large spice refiner or large ore refiner in DD.
2) Right now the most you can bring from DD to Hagga is 1000 weight in an assault cargo - processed materials typically weigh less than raw materials, so it can save you a bit of back and forth

They're testing the ability to carry vehicles from Hagga to DD and vice versa, at which point it might make less sense to bother with a complex DD base and it is better to just haul crap back to Hagga in a buggy/spice crawler/carrier cargo container when they add that
