help with unity 5.5

I Just upgraded to unity 5.5 from 5.4, now i hit a brick wall. my objects are turning blueish and purplish for no reasons at all when i apply materials to them. . .i know it cant be a bug, what am i doing wrong? i new feature don’t know about perhaps? here’s a box and plane went all weird on me. please help

Just found out that this is caused by Compression of the reflection source (Scene Lighting). when set to auto, this problem arises. Setting the compression to uncompressed clears the problem.
