Beta is down right now, try Friday?
Either that's an old troll shot; or you somehow bypassed SE's server checks and are showing the old client; which is suspect because without an internet connection launching the launcher fails ;)
In either case however uninstall and reinstall from the offical download. Should fix you up right quick and in a hurry.

Like Final Fantasy XI, the game specs will be extremely high for the time, but in about 5 years, an average machine can run it on max settings with little to no issues. Tanaka also expressed interest in making a benchmark program available.

Yeah... that's the old client, used in phase 2.
You'll want to wait until the patched client goes up, most likely wednesday or thursday (was Thursday last week).

Well to be honest thats not my screen shot I should of said that in the OP.
That is a screen shot I found online. I just downloaded the client today from square enix website. I was just lazy and used someone else's screen shot. That is the same error message I'm getting.

Still having this issue if anyone could help.
Have you tried the beta forums?
I had this problem Friday. Your client will still attemt to update even though the beta isnt active. Once you're patched up if you click Play it will give you an error that says "unspecified". This is because theres supposed to be an English error there but they never put it in. The error is correct if your language is set to Japanese. Its supposed to say the beta is not currently active or something.
To resolve your problem, go into your root drive\users\your user name\my documents\my games\final fanasty xiv: a realm reborn (beta)\download\ or I think its \patch\ (im not on my home computer so im going off memory here) and theres folders with what looks like random alphanumeric names and should be a file called GameInstall something. Open that GameInstall file in Notepad and look at the path of the latest entry on the list. Go rename that folder to \whatever_old\ and restart the launcher.
Also try closing everything you can before running the launcher, web browsers included. No joke.Nothing but the launcher running. Disable your anti-virus too.
Now just to note, I did that several times and got the error before it worked. It took me about 5 tries before it updated error free. I'm pretty sure that somewhere along the download gets corrupted and the error we're seeing is a checksum mismatch error. Of course since we're English we dont get a meaningful error, just cryptic numbers, so its just a guessing game as to what is actually going on.
I have a feeling a lot of English speaking people will see this upon launch and immediately be reminded of 1.0. The devs have not aknowledged this error and its not that uncommon. I have no doubt it will make it to release and they will blame the user's machine without investigating the cause of it.
Good luck.

For the record, I have no problems updating anything on my computer. Guild Wars 2, random steam apps, windows update, antivirus updates, and general downloads are all fine. FFXIV is the only time Ive had to restart a download like this.
Maybe its using torrents and ******** up connections?
