Nah, both players dying to each other has been here since the dawn of internet gaming.
It just used to be the other way round, the player with the better ping got the results whilst now it is the laggy player from the country with the cruddy connection that comes out on top (also opens up the forms of cheating, fake lag etc).
Even in BC2, you could unload a full clip into someone and they turn around to one shot you.
