C# Member variable overrides used by base class method

Question

OK so I admit right off the top that this is a bit screwy … but it does serve a logical purpose. I’m using C# for a current project and I’m trying to find a way to override

Simply don't use new. Set the array in your subclass' constructor.

EDIT: with code:

class subclass1 : baseclass
{
    public subclass1()
    {
        array = new string[]
        {
            "class1value1",
            "class1value2",
            "class1value3",
            "class1value4"
        };
    }
}

class subclass2 : baseclass
{
    public subclass2()
    {
        array = new string[]
        {
            "class2value1",
            "class2value2",
            "class2value3",
            "class2value4"
        };
    }
}
