Your hypothetical frozen paintball, in theory, won't collapse on impact as a thawed paintball does. The collapse of the capsule takes some of the energy out of getting hit, where as if you were hit with a ball that weighs the same and doesn't collapse, i'd think it would hurt a little more, but not my much because the collapse can't take that much energy out of it.

As for where it came from, dunno, intuitively i would also think it'd hurt a lot more... but i dunno. Maybe old paintballs were made with stuff that freezes, and perhaps it was true a long time ago but not anymore.
