My new opening Im trying out is the Queens Gambit, obviously  my opponent is not always going to go d5, I just need some alternatives for opening up d4...Thank you in advance...

What other moves do you see?

Nimzo Indian

Queen's '

King's '

Bogo '

Slav '

Old ' 

Mexican Defense [not recommended] 

Trompovsky

Torre Attack

Benko Gambit

Benoni

Omega Gambit [not recommended] 

Medusa Gambit [not recommended] 

Dutch

Englund Gambit

Old Benoni

d4  an also transpose into Pirc, French, Caro-Kann, etc. etc. etc.

Idk, my point is I would be playing for the Gambit and if my opponent does go for it then what should I try and do? Btw my opponent can respond with Nf6...but lets say my opponent isnt very good at chess and allows me to get e4 after d4 and I have broad center control...are there any openings that follow this set up? Or is this too crazy for anybody to allow that and no openings follows this set up?

Im not looking for a defense Im talking as if im playing as white...

Here are some ideas to bear in mind when playing 1. d4.

b6: Queen's Indian, Old Indian, Bogo Indian

b5: Unusual Black 2nd move replies

c6: Slav/Semi-Slav Defense

c5: Benoni and Benko openings

d6: Pirc and modern Defenses

d5: QGD, Nimzo-Indian, and Grunfeld Defenses (including the Neo-Grunfeld)

e6: Pirc and Modern Defenses

e5: Albin Countergambit (with d5)

f6: Unusual Black 2nd Move replies

f5: Dutch Defense

g6: King's indian, Pirc and modern Defenses, Grunfeld and Nimzo-indian defenses

g5: Unusual Black 2nd move replies

a6,a5,h6,h5: same as above

Na6,Nh6: Same

Nc6: Queens Indian

Nf6: King's Indian and related Defenses

Also, remember that some players will transpose into openings they like by different move orders, allowing White to set up systems that may not work based on the scheme Black has used.

I would suggest getting some books on the QGD that explain the basics and ideas behind the moves and openings and practice them with people to learn not only how but why they work the way they do. Expect to suffer some losses as this is part of the leaqrning curve but eventually you will find an opening repetoire that siuts your style of play and begin to see some great wins.

Advantages to 1. d4 vs. 1.e4

1. 2 pieces defend d4 while 1. e4 has none defending instantly

2. d4 controls 2 center squares (c5/e5) e4 really only controls 1 (d5)

3. White can build a big pawn center and achieve good play in the middlegame without much worry of immediate attacks in almost all lines save the Albin Countergambit (though with good play can at least equalize).

4. White can eventually place a Bishop on d3 and stop Black from developing the LSB to f5. Without Bd3, White can play in certain lines to rid Black of his f6 Knight with Bxf6 Bxf6 and then play Qb3, attacking the d5 and b7 pawns.

5. should Black ever accept the gambit, White can mobilize quickly and defend well and even get back the gambited pawn.

Some disadvantafges to 1. d4

1. many lines are highly positional and play with the center closed, requiring much patience.

2. Tactics play a large role in closed position games.

3. If White plays to the edges (wings) of the board, he has to be ready for Black to blast open the center.

4. In many openings, exchanges will usually favor the defender as white has typically more space advantage

5. Both sides might have to deal with bad Bishops though the Bishops pair is not so much a factor here unless the center is opened up. knights will play a big role in many openings.

6. 1. d4 allows White to castle long in very few openings (typically in certain lines of the King's Indian as 0-0-0 exposes White to too many rapid attacks.

This line is a really fun one to learn and a great alternative to 1. e4. Try to experiment with it and see what you think of it. play it in Blitz and long games. play it against the guys at your local club or park or coffeehouse. It is an opening that has almost as much history and respect as the Ruy Lopez and has been a staple of many GM Class games. How popular? Alekhine and Capablanca played 32 of their 34 matches playing some form of the Queen's Gambit.

Good luck with the new opneing.

1... e6 does not lead to PIrc or Modern. It leads to Nimzo.

With the d4, e4 concept, I get it alot with the the Veresov (or even the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit). These openings are extremely tatical, and I castle queenside more often than kingside (and sometimes the tempos are so important that I don't even castle).

Ok...I think everybody is reading my question wrong, Im asking what kind of offensive can be played as white if I open d4...lets say I open d4...what can I play? Or is that based on my opponents next move?

For example lets say i go d4 looking for queens gambit and black goes d6 instead, so i go e4, then he goes e5 now what?

Exchange. He will exchange back and then you trade queens and then you try to attack his king because he cant caslte.

Heres an example of what I play:

1.d4 d5 Bf4 = The London system
1.d4 nf6 bg5 = The Trompowsky Attack
1.d4 f5 bg5 = The Hopton Attack 
1.d4 nf6 Bg5 e6 nf3= The Torre attack

A few others I occasionally play are:
1.d4 d5 Bg5 = The Levitsky Attack
1.d4 d5 c4 = The Queens Gambit
1.d4 d5 e4 = The Blackmar Diemer Gambit

I also sometimes use the colle-zukertort or stonewall, many of these system openings can be played against virtually any reply, though they are best used against certain etups. 

I don't think there is anything wrong with a beginner playing 1.d4. To answer the question you're asking, it really does depend on what your opponent does, but just get your pieces out and castle quickly. In your example 1.d4 d6 2.e4 e5, I prefer 3.Nf3, getting out a new piece, to trading queens into a boring endgame where Black's king is perfectly safe in the center and neither side has any pieces out. 1.d4 e6 2.e4 d5 is called the French Defense, where dealing with the threat to the e-pawn is a priority (I recommend 3.Nd2 because on 3.Nc3 Black can play the annoying 3...Bb4 pinning the Knight and here with 3.Nd2 you can play 3...Bb4 4.c3 attacking the Bishop). 1.d4 c6 2.e4 d5 is a Caro-Kann defense where similar ideas apply but the moves Nc3 and Nd2 are equally good for the most part.

1.d4 Nf6 is very common, where 2.c4 is the main move and 2.Nf3 followed by 3.Bg5 is also very reasonable, among other ideas.

You don't need to know much about specific openings, but be familiar with getting out your pieces and castling quickly no matter what opening you choose to play. After you have developed all of the pieces, including queen and rooks (to files behind advanced pawns), you can attack with pieces, pawns, or a combination of the two.
