I'll agree with the others that 3♦ is a wasted bid, as it is standard to play it as a help suit game try.

If, however, it was a short suit game try (or long suit game try) it may be worthwhile bidding 3♦ then 4♠ over partner's response to try to persuade the opponents to lead another suit (preferably hearts or clubs)- ie as a tactical bid.

I think I'd just bid game with the East hand.

Ofcourse, it's easier if you have another raise available to show a constructive hand with 4-card support ;)
