Are Dark Souls 2 player ghosts realtime?
Are Dark Souls 2 player ghosts (the ghosts you encounter in bonfires and the ghosts you encounter while running around in the world) realtime, or are they just recorded actions of other players online and merely playbacks?
(Nobody ever warcries back to me...)

I have waved and been waved back at by a ghost in DS2. I've also had one running around in me in circles whilst I was running down a bridge. which was weird.

Answer 2
The random ghosts that pop around and at bonfires are reportedly real, however I can find no record of this being confirmed. For instance, here some people mention that they "-have seen a couple phantoms flinch when I come around the corner at them...".
The reason it's interesting is that this could be an example of synchronous multiplayer OR it could be just an advanced little gimmicky AI that is just meant to trick you into thinking that they're real players.
Answer 3
Yes they are. I was helping my friend and I saw his ghost apppear and walk to my summon. Three seconds later I was summoned by him.
