Has something changed with graphics since I left?

To my knowledge, nothing you have described is intentional, with the possible exception of some new animations for powers. It sounds like you've got some bugs. 
You might want to try updating your video card drivers or tweaking around with your graphics settings to try to resolve the issues.
We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.

I have started seeing really weird, really wrong reflections of my toon in water last week... anyone else noticed this?
ive notice the walls and floors going from a detailed texture to a smooth plainess. also, randomly the floor and walls disappearing and turnin to black. so i dont know whats up.
RED CAP DAGGERS: if you want them red side on infinity, send a pm i have the mission to get them for dual blades.
I have also seen many times whole group of mobs just appear and disappear when in MA. Dunno if its all the lag causing it but really annoying nevertheless.

A reflection of your character's back in the water? If it's that and you have an ATI card, I believe the solution is to just disable Water Effects.
Having Vengeance and Fallout slotted for recharge means never having to say you're sorry.
Check out this thread, Common Solutions & Posting Guidelines
Then post the results of these two programs in the Technical forum in a new thread:
<ul type="square">[*]CoH Helper - it will show us basic computer settings and your CoH configuration.
[*]HijackThis - it will show us what's running on your computer concurrently with CoH. Click on "Do a system Scan and save a logfile." It will automatically open up Notepad and put the info there. Make sure Wordwrap is off in Notepad (Format > Wordwrap unchecked) before you cut and paste here.

Ok thanks guys.
I figured it couldn't be my PC since it ran perfectly just 2 months ago. I assumed something must have changed for something this drastic.

Thanks, I'll try that
I recently took a break from the game for a while. (couple months...I think)
Just logged in yesterday for the first time and got some odd behavior graphics-wise. The character was a Bots MM (lvl 14). I pulled out the tier 1 and tier 2 bots and started doing a little street sweeping to get back into the groove. I noticed my two little bots were going completely invisible and I could only see the bubble around them from the middle bot. I zoned into a mission and got the same thing with them again. (They show up when you summon them but go away after a couple of minutes.)
That was weird. But I also noticed there were some new things going on with powers. When I turned Hover and Fly on I got a glow animation I didn't get before. There was some glowing animation on defeated mobs. The mobs also were running sideways when they moved around. I also noticed some new animations on different powers the mobs were using. And caltrops were popping up even though no one was using them....but there was no 'slow" or tick damage so they really weren't there.
And odd experience....I logged out thinking, "O...kay....I'll come back later"
