The Chest has a new Model, and a Animation. Two Things...
I am really looking forward to it, the updates images give a good feeling that it would be an great game :)
The sand at the bottom left is the old sand, and all around is the new sand texture. Compare what the sand looks like now and look at the sand in this picture.
no, that's just a normal sand block that's higher and closer to the camera, it's an optical illusion cause it lines up with the bottom side of the chest.
i think i found the second thing! the three cacti above the chest, 2 2-tall, 1 3-tall in between, behind the 3-tall there appears to be something brown that is definitely not a shrub.
Finally someone that makes sense. See it's always been like this: Notch posts a new picture about something, that picture usually includes a new hint. For example: When notch posted a picture of the endermen, you could see a zombie with arrows stuck in it, which means that arrows will now stick. And when he posted a picture with an NPC village, you could see a giant mushroom. So you tell me maybe there's 3 nw thing which is why the "Two" in the title is quoted. Then again I might be wrong.
is it possible to make it so you can see all the items in the chest as if they were dropped but you cant pick them up and the gui opens like
2 seconds after you open it?
When I looked at this screenshot in the Minecraft forum - the sand looks a bit like those wooden/stone pressure plates given that it seems to be one unit high. So... sand pressure plates?
Ever thought of the fact that a sand pressure plate would be perfect for any desert dungeon traps?
After all, if you're not the most observant person in the world you can easily walk right onto the pressure plates - guaranteed it's the same block that it was placed on like wood-wooden pressure plate/stone-stone pressure plate - and not realise until you hear the following *click*.
I am loving this update now.
also, quoted "Two" as I cannot see the second thing.
Some guys on the forums pointed out that the second thing might be the lightning.
I think its the chest as it is 2 things.
I got it! He holds the sand in the left hand!
that was added before. Remember the old update videos? there was lightning.

Maby Bigger Desert/ Biomes
1. a Chest opening animation
2. Lighting From day-sunset, night-sunrise
It's the open chest, and ether bigger biomes OR the thing that nights are blue-er now.
The chest and the sand on the left side on the chest. It might be quicksand :)
That is a sand block.
I have figured it out.
clouds are affected by the lighting.
Too lazy to check an old one but that sounds like it might just be right!
The second thing could be lighting, or a horizon, because you can usualy see when new chunks are generated, but now its so even and nice...
or he quoted two because there are actually two chests :D
I cant wait I am really in love with this update.
Look closer. On the left side of the chest.
Quicksand.
Oh my god you might be right. It looks a bit more dull than the regular sand, but it'd be easy to spot from up close.

Damn, i love tweaks like this.
The chest physically opens and there's a sunset/sunrise. Yay.
I am blown away by how beautiful this looks.

Kind of looks like a chest with eyes, judging by the three or so pixels I can see. Mimic perhaps?

Uh...
I though it was the chest animation and the new desert biome, you know, like how there will be meanders and other rives...
Did I win?
so know you can find chest in the dessert? And it know opens up is that the 2 things?
The chest was placed there by a player to demonstrate the opening animation.
i thought the second thing was increased biome size. that desert is much bigger than any i've ever seen generated.
Guys the second thing is the 3D lock, Look closer!
maybe the cacus grow bigger than 3 blocks?
quick sand! look to the left of the chest

"What are you on about?": Minecraftwiki.net
Even in an computer game that sounds idiotic. Sand pressure plate, really?
Like if that's the most important update they want to show us.
