GWX - DC announcement?

This has been my dilemma since first loading the game. On one hand, I wanted to play this "real" like one does a flight sim by staying in the cockpit. On the other hand, this is not a flight sim. So, staying in the cockpit basically turns this game into a Sub Command analog where effectively you are playing at various station displays. Now, in any other subsim, I was just fine with that, but this game is so incredibly beautiful graphically, I feel cheated only looking at stations and peeping through the scope!

What to do!? That's why I was hoping to simply be able to watch torpedo hits, since I am generally on the way down after firing, but disable the other features of the event window.

On another note, of course, it is safest to dive as soon as feasible. However, in real life what was most common? I get the impression that subs confirmed their hits from PD before diving (and sometimes sinkings) unless they were forced under first.

Thanks.
