Problem with "internal" achievements is that they can turn into competition who can cheat undetected on grandeur scale. While still fun, some prefer competition that can be objectively fair for everyone.

On the other hand any goals will mean that people will create AARs about them. So it still will be better than non. Also mod specific achievements would be great.

You're implying anyone gives a damn whether they are legitimate or not - It's not like they unlock some magical artifact noone else has access to. And FYI, the "cheating" aspect was just as easy while connected. You can't foolproof anything that runs locally and is checked remotely.
