A No Man's Sky player built a cozy tropical base on one of the planets they discovered and shared the project online. No Man's Sky recently saw a surge of players following the release of a massive update on July 17 that added new content to the game and made significant changes to its visuals.
Considered by many to be one of the best open-world sci-fi games, 2016's No Man's Sky is known for its procedurally generated universe filled with a near-infinite number of planets. Players are free to carry out all sorts of activities on the more than 18 quintillion worlds featured in the Hello Games-developed title, such as exploring, harvesting materials, and cataloging lifeforms. It is also common to build bases on planets, and one player has impressed the No Man's Sky community with their most recent settlement.

No Man’s Sky is a universe filled with endless possibilities, here is all ten of them. Hey, it’s the best war games, and here it is,
In a recent Reddit post, user Satsumamanki shared the No Man's Sky tropical base that they built on a world with a large ocean. The planet did not have any notable resources, but Satsumamanki, who shared the world's coordinates, was drawn to its sunset, they explained. Several community members praised the player's talent for construction and decoration, while others were just curious as to how they were able to acquire so many blueprints in the game. Blueprints unlock new craftable items and technologies, such as No Man's Sky Exocrafts that are primarily used to explore worlds.
Beautiful No Man's Sky Tropical Base
Other members of the No Man's Sky community have created plenty of incredible bases over the years. One player, a Reddit user named Tr3ntos, built a No Man's Sky base inside a cave that cleverly utilized the natural formation's glowing fungus as lights. Like Satsumamanki's tropical base, Tr3ntos' project received compliments from fellow players, with one person even describing the cave home as one of the most gorgeous bases that they have ever seen.
Worlds Part 1, the most recent major update for No Man's Sky, overhauled the title's graphical presentation by introducing more detailed shadows, new volumetric effects, higher definition water, and reworked wind simulation, among other things. Also known as the 5.0 Update, Worlds Part 1 delivered a long list of bug fixes and provided several quality-of-life improvements as well.
The player count for No Man's Sky spiked after the release of the 5.0 Update, and the game had close to 55,000 concurrent players on Steam at one point, the latest data provided by analytics website SteamDB showed. No Man's Sky has not seen these kinds of numbers since August 2019, which is around the time when the game's Update 2.0 was released.

WHERE TO PLAY
Lose yourself in a vast sci-fi odyssey as you explore a near-infinite, procedurally generated universe. Set out from the edge of the Euclid galaxy and carve out your own interstellar existence in a vast universe teeming with life, danger and near-endless mystery. No Man's Sky is a hugely-ambitious, heavily-stylised, sci-fi adventure that spans entire galaxies all brought to life with procedural generation. Travel through an endless array of increasingly diverse and dangerous star systems, prospecting for rare materials, trading with alien life, populate planets and searching for clues to the meaning of the universe's mysterious existence. How you survive is up to you. Assemble entire fleets of dreadnought-class freighters and tear across the universe; build sprawling habitable bases across planet surfaces, beneath the ground or under the ocean; buy and upgrade your own weapons and star ships and do battle with outlaw space pirates, hostile alien fauna or the mysterious sentinel fleets. The universe is yours to explore - trillions upon trillions of planets, waiting to be discovered.
