Yo guys ive been trying to get a simple bass sound, such as this. I have come pretty close, anyone have some advice on how I could get even closer to this? It sounds very simple and im sure it is.

sounds like shit dude, like someone sampled some brostep on their phone, chopped it into incoherent bits and put it on soundcloud. just download some dubstep massive presets and you're off to the races, or start watching youtube videos on "dubstep wobble" i guess :/

Harmonically rich base sound, automated bandpass filter and post filter distortion would be my guess.
Perhaps the scrapyard wavetable, with some automation on the wavetable position aswell

sounds like it's a ripoff from a dj set on youtube, possibly just used something like youtube to mp3 converter, then it converted it from a 240p video to a shit mp3. Then the last part is pitched down.

Lol I sampled it out of a youtube video and slowed it down (sometimes it helps when determining the wavetable, try it).
