No explosions, just men claim this and that damaged. You see the sub decending into the abyss and then you kind of float up above the water into the sky. Not bad really. Beats the black screen of death.

the sucky thing is that you are arrested and put in the brig and put on trial for treason....so you drown, die, get resurected and thrown in the brig

That part is kind of strange for sure.

I see the control room and water spurting from pipes and stuff. I guess this was added in Patch 1.1

Yes, I see that also. It is not bad really. I'm not sure if we really need super Hollywood effects here on 70 men going on eternal patrol.

Run-down of the damage system: 1) "We're out of diesel fuel, sir!" "Crap, but we're submerging anyway" 2) "Batteries discharged, sir!" "Oh fine, surface then. Um wait, why are we at 700 ft?) 3) Screen of the XO giving you "the look" before a cheap death screen 4) The Navy somehow manages to haul you out from 5000ft of water to put you on trial for treason
