The crew in adjacent compartments might have a better chance of short term survival or successfully completing an emergency blow, but that is probably about it. Best that could be hoped for would probably be a total mission kill, with the sub stuck on the surface and being towed back to port.
Of course, with that being said, a real 688 wouldn't be likely to survive a single direct hit from even a lightweight torpedo. Cue realism vs. gameplay discussion!
