FngKestrel: You can get winter formula paintballs that have a lower freezing point. I know Draxxus makes an "Artic Inferno" brand ball that's for winter use.

As for problems:
1) Lube: A lot of lubes gum up in colder weather. A big problem for any marker using a spool valve.
2) CO2: Just use HPA, really. CO2 in the winter, nothing good can come of that
3) Expensive electronics and snow: Use a $1000+ marker with snow around, yikes

I'd suggest trying to find an indoor field. I played last winter indoors, and it worked out pretty good. A little nippy since they didn't turn the heat up much, but
