From a neogaf poster:
"I packet captured my PS4. When the servers are online, no player movement data is sent to servers, either in space or planet side. It simply doesn't transmit where you are, or any world sharing information. It does transmit your Discovers, and a diary of planets you have visited. I imagine that is for the Easter eggs. Also, if you press 'OPTIONS' it pauses the entire game world, including AI (watch creatures and ships stop) and time. Planets stop moving and time stops passing when in OPTIONS. This is not a multiplayer game."
