"3 shoots life" i'm assuming means it takes 3 shots to kill someone, there's many problems to that idea...
first and most importantly the game is paintball, and paintball is typically 1 shot one eliminated. To change this would change the game to something else, it wouldn't be paintball anymore, imo.
Implementing a feature like this just for new players (if possible) wouldn't really help them improve in the long run. They would just be getting used to playing with a feature that is not part of the normal game. Best way for a player to get better is to just practice playing the game the way it is, not by making things easier for them. Something i learned from playing ping-pong is you get better faster with constant practice against/with more experienced players, i think this applies to just about any type of game.
Another issue with your idea is fire-rate of the guns. 3 hits wouldn't even be that much of a help unless your opponent is using pgp.
Hate to shoot your idea down but I would suggest getting used to 1 hit eliminated,, no health-bar, no lives, you get hit you're out, that's just how pball is played
