This sounds alot like something that was happening when I played. I thought maybe my graphics card or its drivers were screwed up but nothing I did helped. Until, while I was playing AH (in the tower)I tried switching between Viewing ranges. There are 3 of them in AH; Shift F3 is short range, Shift F2 is Medium and Shift F1 is FULL. It turned out that I must have accidentally switched to short range because when I hit Shift F1 that fixed the in game graphics and I could see the terrain graphics (land and water) went all the way to the horizon again and no more light blue color could be seen. The attachment below shows what I saw on screen before I figured out what the problem was. At the edge of the water you can see some of the light blue color you mentioned GA. Is that what you're seeing? If so, while playing, try hitting Shift F1. Hope this helps.:D

Actually it sounds more like you have accidently turned clutter OFF.

Clutter is toggled on Ctrl+C.
