They just don't. They seem to be supposed to be pipes, but why would you put a pipe randomly in the middle of a floor? Also, they are often rotated wrong. And there are no bent-arm connectors, tri connectors or quad connectors where appropriate. Also, what was wrong with the old ones?
New block textures don't make sense

I don't get the those blocks but they do look cool, But I agree they should be rotated or make connectors depending on the area.

Another case of fixing things that weren't broken and making them worse instead. Either fix the fix, or roll it back.

I like them better than the old ones by far.

What I don't get is why they couldn't keep the old ones and throw in the new ones for some added diversity? I think that a combination of the two block types would have looked pretty good.
But alas, OOO's design choices continue to baffle me...

Aren't they turbines?

They certainly stand out more. Makes it better and clearer from a gameplay perspective, although i'm not sure how people feel about it looking like "part of the environment"

I'd rather have things look congruent than have everything colored to stand out. And as for the turbine thing, I don't know lol.

Old blocks do still exist actually. I saw them in Heart of Ice today. Sadly, all the brown blocks I've seen have been replaced, whether it fits or not.
Worryingly, the massive block penis blocking the hallway in the machine workshop mission is now made entirely out of the new turbines, making it more fearsome than ever before! It's a good thing we stopped the Roarmulus twins. If that thing was attached and became active, surely the Arcade would have been lost.
