It is related to water color and quality graphic settings.  
Older versions, in low quality the water would appear as an opaque light cyan color. While in high quality it would be a more transparent dark blue.

In this latest, it seems to be switched? The opaque cyan is high quality and the transparent dark blue is in low quality.

Current low quality, looking like old high quality.

I’m honestly not worried if it changed the colors (we can change it in the biome settings), I’m just worried for performance.

Hey Bruno! Max and I messed with the water rendering a bunch, so this is a side effect of that. Little things you might notice, the water is now effected by the fog of war, it doesn’t double up on itself and it takes the light color differently.

So yeah not to worry, LQ hasn’t swapped for HQ.
